while were on the topic of large car production numbers (i think we are)

wasnt the 65 impala the first car to sell annually over a million cars?

Updated OP with raw videos.

Okay, it looks like the recovery efforts to retrieve the cars is a go.  They are going EXTREMELY slow though, with work + repairs taking until August most likely.  The '62 Corvette will be the first out of the hole being in such an easy place.  I'm guessing either the blue C6 ZR1 or the one millionth Corvette will be next.

Big bump.

First car was removed from the sinkhole today, the '09 Corvette ZR1 "Blue Devil".  The car still runs and drives as is even after falling in.  Previous pictures of the incident show the car sitting right side up on top of the giant grave in the middle where the majority of the cars lay completely buried.

I'm wondering how that happened...yellow question mark is the '62 Corvette, red arrows show the already rescued one.

i thought this was a pun or something
i looked for the joke for like 5 minutes

then i saw who posted it

I'm quite suprised just how ok that blue corvette is, after a fall like that, I'd have thunk it be more damaged.

Well, it did land on its wheels, and it probably wasn't an instantaneous drop either.

Recovering the Blue Devil


Here's the '62 Corvette and the red older ZR1 before they fell.
