    This sounds like the plot of "Gone In 60 Seconds 2":

    That museum is pretty cool, if you're ever driving through Bowling Green on I-65. But even more cool if you can get in on a tour at the Corvette plant across the street.

    Car and Driver (and I'm sure others as well) have posted videos released by museum staff of what it looks like inside the sinkhole. As a Corvette diehard the news is hard enough to take, but the saddest part to me is you can't even see where half the cars ended up, meaning they are buried under a ton of rubble. The ones on top (especially the 2009 ZR1) don't seem to be in terrible shape, but the buried ones are probably totaled.
