Nice.
Come on, folks. Major humanitarian disaster. Sure, mostly due to the country being poorer than dirt and no building codes, but still.

Give me a break, I was being sarcastic, mocking the idea that anyone actually would consider getting parts off of it. I also said it was a profound tragedy and very sobering. Obviously I'm not actually concerned with the cars involved, and I'm guessing no one else here is, either. And I'd say if that quake hit an area with building codes, it would have still been quite deadly. It won't be easy for a country with so few resources to rebuild. They lost a lot of infrastructure, not to mention a lot of lives.
