A car carrier carrying Porsches and VW’s has caught fire in the Atlantic and has been abandoned by its crew…

My GT3 was ordered with a charcoal interior and smoke tinted windows.
I think I'll be fine.

I saw new news on that fire. Porsche stated that they had a lot of lithium fueling the fires. So hopefully it has more taycans than 911's or the GT cars. 1100 is a lot of cars. At least Porsche will have good sales figures lol, they will have to produce 1100 more cars than expected.

Whats the finders fee since the boat is in international waters abandoned. Wonder if there is anything salvageable on there.
