"Sorry for the delay Mr. Seinfield, It appears our truck had dropped them of in another location. We'll get back to you ASAP, as soon as we can piece them, I mean, figure out where the cars were dropped."

if you roll the black one over and only drive them at night no one will notice the dammage; and if they do just tell them, "It a speed dent, it makes my car go so much faster!"

There were more than just two. There were 4 356 speedsters, one 356 coupe, and a 911 carrera on the trailer. I think I heard that all but one of the speedsters is totalled. (the one speedster in that picture)

I know it's splitting hairs, but I believe there were only 3 356 speedsters(one hard top), 1 356 coupe and 1 911. Not like this makes it any better! I love all cars (except corvette stingrays), and it hurts to see any carnage like that. Please send my regrets... Crying or Very sad

9/13 WE WILL NEVER FORGET! This has to be the biggest tragedy since 1968 when the first fat chick rolled off the assembly line!
