Yep, even worse when it's a convertible with top down or white rag top.

New cars are shipped all around the world roll on roll off, accidents sometimes happen,even on relatively short crossings if you can cast your mind back to 2016 when many cars got damaged on the ferry to Tasmania.The other way you can look at it is containers are known to fall off of ships from time to time.
Accidents happen :(

When you put your cargo on the sea , you thought the dice and take the chance .
No matter how the freight is carried.

Ouch... :(

Costs only around $450-$550 to insure a Car point to point from USA to Syd , had damage occur in containers on load/unload and marine insurance has paid out each time ... well worth it !
