That hole in the fence isn't anywhere near large enough for that car to have driven through....

Yeah, I'm definitely going to have to wave the bullshit flag on this one siting the following evidence:

1)  As Rando astutely noted, there's no way that car (given, it is a pretty small car) made it through that gap in the fence and came to rest in the position and angle that you see it.

2)  The article says the car was moving 40mph and launched into the pool.  This would put the car much further away from the wall than it is.

3)  It is common knowledge that Miatas float.

If it was a Toyota Diesel truck, it probably would. Anyone remember the link to that video?

Any diesel engine can run under water provided it has a way to intake air, it's a pretty sweet deal.

Here are a few fine examples of underwater Diesel engine lovin':

The first one is an old Army Deuce and a half, the second two are both toyotas, despite what the numbskulls are saying on the page.

Here's just some crazy ass cracker type shit:

Rando

My buddy has a Pinzgauer http://www.mountainandsafari.com/index.php?mod=shwVeh&idVeh=21 Can't beat portal axles man.  He says the worst part is when your leaving the gas station you have to look and see if anyone is under the thing.  More often than not it goes "GET THE @@#$% OUT FROM UNDER THERE!"

I'll get more info if you want and pics.
