For the historians of tomorrow

From time to time, cargo ships sink and valuable automobiles can also run aground. This was already the case with the Andrea Doria in the 1950s, but it happened again on March 12, 2019, when the Grimaldi Group's "Grande America" caught fire and sank off the coast of France.
There were apparently around 2000 cars on board, many with an Audi badge. Among the sunken vehicles were also four Porsche 911 GT2 RSs, whose production had already ended. Now Porsche apparently wants to start building them again so that the Brazilian buyers of the 700 hp sports cars can still get their dream car.
Who knows how much will be known about this incident in 30 or more years' time, and whether historians won't be tearing their hair out over missing cars, unclear production figures or incomprehensibly assigned chassis numbers ...
