Unhappy In case you feel like crying

This flickr account is owned by someone who works at a high-end scrapyard for insurance companies that need to scrap Maybachs and Brabus and other new, ultra-luxury vehicles.

It's so depressing

They don't resell the parts? I doubt an insurance company would just junk some of these cars . .

I see potential to make good $$$ off parts.

Could as well be test-vehicles or zero-series. Those have to be scrapped, even when in perfect condition.

They are just cars and likely all are insured. It's interesting how many Ferraris and Lamborghinis catch fire and burn to the ground along the roadside. There is a message there. And all the Vipers done in by incompetent driving. A good number of SLRs are seen in pieces, also.
