Damn bro thats sucks .If it is a freshwater flood it can be repaired .I bought a 97 sc that was flodded up to the dashboard. If your motor did not get any water all you will have to do is change out some electronics and give it a good steam clean .Salt water on the other hand will destroy everything.

im finally back for a bit.. what sucks more there is a power outage.
as for the comment about i killed it with my parking.. im sorry if i dont have as much money as you.. for your information that parking space is an assigned one. for the past 7 years i lived there it never rain like that before. i dont work the same work hours as other people. i sleep in the mornings because i have a afternoon shift. thats why my car got flooded. this is what it looks like in terms of heavy rain for the past 7 years where i live. in terms of me being calm about the condition of my car.. well what can you do.. just start all over again with another project. i have a few cars im looking at.. so im already looking forward to it..

this years rain compared last years heavy rain where it knocked out the eletricity for 3 days

Yeah, sad to see such a clean SC flooded...but come back with another clean SC or Lexus, or another car. I just read on CNN that it was the worst rain in Chicago history...this thread makes me hate rain even more (if that's even possible).

Sorry for the lost man! Im dam near about to cry right now and its not even my car! If you cant salvage it try to part it out like every one else says. I'll buy some stuff off you if thats what you end up doing. But make sure you stay in the SC family, were knitt tighter than the LS family,lol.

wow!! you are such a nice guy.... considering that if you were in this situation that he is in you would be ******!ng up a storm and crying like a baby i think you should stop being an @ss and try being a bit more sympathetic to him.

Wow...that REALLY sucks. Sorry to hear.

If you do choose to part out, I'll make an offer on your CD magazine.
