Default PT GT Floats! Well, kinda...

So I managed to have the tires lose there grip on a super slimy boat ramp. Car was in park. Hit the water, and FLOATED away. Yes, it floated. Made it about 100 feet away from the ramps edge and sat there looking at me for over 5 minutes! Then finally the door seals could take no more, she let out a big gasp of air and sunk to the bottom! PT GT RIP 2004-2009

Holy lord... Did you have it lifted from the bottom? I guess I am kinda in shock, as I am sure you were too. How terrible, hope insurance doesn't give you a hard time.
