Bad news for those awaiting 2009s...

Train derailment in Germany. Rumored 18 cars, mostly 2C and 2CS, but I hear there was a GT2 in there...

not really...GT3s and GT3RSs were done being made for that particular model. New GT3 to be launched by 09, probably in Geneva (March 09) or Frankfurt (Sep. 09) auto shows. RS to follow in 6 months or so.

Oh man, that just sucks!!! When mine was being built last winter, the paint dryer exploded and shut the factory down for over a week because of flooding.! Nearly gave me a heart attack (turns out mine had got out of that factory one day earlier!) I feel bad for those who were waiting for these cars, too bad.
