Oh The Horror! - Shipment of BMWs damaged on cargo ship.

I was just reading a story on autoblog about a ship carrying BMWs that apparently tipped over at port in New Jersey causing damage to over 370 new BMWs. Most disturbing is that among them is a shipment of BMW's new V8 powered M3. Very sad day indeed.

The story states that about 70 of the cars were reported as total losses and the most badly damaged will be crushed. The remaining cars with minor damage from the incident will be repaired.

That really sucks if you are one of the people who have been waiting eagerly for your new M3 to arrive. Unfortunately, many will have to wait a bit longer.
