According to Yahoo Japan, the storm surge from Typhoon Jebi destroyed 51 of 53 new and used Ferraris worth a billion yen (thanks Steve!)


The strongest typhoon to hit Japan in a quarter-century sent a three foot of storm surge into the showroom of a Ferrari dealership on an artificial island in an artificial island in Higashinada Ward, the city of Kobe.

Salt water reportedly seeped into the engine bays, so the vehicles were trucked away to be scrapped.

Think about this... they aren't likely to rebuild the dealership 5 or 6 feet higher to prevent this from happening when next years storms hit.
