So imagine you are the head of a car company and a cargo ship carrying 4,703 of your brand new vehicles tips over at sea. The cars are all strapped down, so there is little damage, but you're not so sure what the effects of having your cars sitting at a 60-degree angle will be. You could very well put the $100 million worth of vehicles on the road and hope for the best, or you could write them off, taking a huge loss in the process.

What would you do?

To hear what Mazda decided to do, check out the story of the Cougar Ace from the Wall Street Journal...pretty amazing story.
