Man that would be a bummer to wait on your new car to be built and have the boat sink! I ordered a 2018 C2S and that took 6 months to arrive. I know some of those 2RS allocations have had some really long waits.

It sank in 15,000 feet of water.... you're going to need a little more than a scuba set.

I heard the ship’s pilot was in his underwear playing air guitar to Bob Seger.
