The first thing that I thought when I saw that picture was "Bioshock".

A photo of a couple of scuba divers standing or sitting in one holding onto a strap and looking at his watch or reading the Post would be funny. I'm bummed that they just seem to toss the cars in the water with all sorts of collectibles attached. I've seen pictures of sunken cars with the old stainless steel MTA plaque featuring the two-color "M" still attached to the outside. Collectors would pay good money for those. The MTA has gotten a little smarter, since they're now selling pillar signs and other decommissioned objects on their website.

Submerged cars also become scuba hotspots. I imagine that would look somewhat creepy... but cool nonetheless.

great ideas, they have been doing this for years. i read however, that instead if selling the cars to other states, nyc gives them away for free... wouldn't this be another great source of monies for the city?

My boyfriend is going to shit when he reads this. Submerged cars also become scuba hotspots.
