If this was mine I'd cry :disgust

oh shit, thats fucked up

i know that expressway and its a club of Ferrari going to province :pimp

His insurance must hate him.
Do you have more details on the fire?

you fucking kidding me..

his own fucking mistake to not watch his temp gauge and see when shit is going wrong..

have fun collecting insurance MF.. seriously..

you can have a car fire without the temp gauge rising.....duh

thats exactly the last thing in the car that have ANYTHING to do with this fire , the temp gauge :)

that's painful to watch.. what a waste

Now it's a piece of modern art. ;)

ouch .....I think the driver it's hanging himself now :1orglaugh

Damn that would seriously suck if it was mine :(

That's Hot :)

was he driving so slow? ;)

selfish bastard creating a big traffic jam.

notice how the german built cars arent on fire? that says it all ;)

Even in a ferrari water doesn't get so hot that it ignites :1orglaugh

oh damn, that sucks!

That's why I keep a fire extinguisher in my cars.

damn man - sad

thats fucked up, poor guy, he probably has insurance, but can you imagine the waiting time on the new order:(

ouchhhhhhh

I've seen quite a few Ferraris and Lambos that have been destroyed by engine fires. I honestly don't think it has anything to do with the manufacturers, so I would love to know whats causing these fires...

whoopsie!

that would sux, I've seen a older ferrari blow a rear tire before and the flying rubber ripped big chunks out of the fibre glass body work

Damn now that is a sad sad day. till the insurance check gets there

Very typical supercar deal... when they fail, it's fucking spectacular!

That totally sucks

Was a nice car :/

Damn... that's a sight. A fire extinguisher would be helpful in a situation like this...

that sucks I might go and buy a fire extinguisher for my car

wow! that would suck ass to own that car

Well, as someone that has had a car catch on fire, I would say it is due to the engine in the rear. Not getting enough air blowing through the engine compartment.

Small gas seepage combined with a cracked spark plug wire equals kaboom.

It really is an interesting experience.

I never thought of it that way, that the engine isn't getting enough air blown through it since it's not in the front..very well could be a big factor in the fires.

On that note I'd love to have a Ferrari....one day.

"Not getting enough air blowing through the engine compartment"

man wtf ? :1orglaugh

a cracked spark plug wire in brand new Ferrari ?

oh man :) :) :)

oil leak + hot engine = fire

I would rather have it burnt o the ground then catch fire and put it out with an extinguisher.

Much better to have a Ferrari totalled than fixable. As long as you arent hurt in the process lol.

Whhhhaaaay :helpme

is expensive?

I have a F430 Spider and the engine gets hot as hell. Thats just the way they are, the guages are normal, they just put off alot of heat. Definitely enough to start a fire if some oil starts leaking or builds up.

Oh-my-god. :uhoh

That is a sad sad sight.

Yeah whatever. YAWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Oh shock.......
Where that happend?

That just sucks!

looks like it's not true!

dont uorry...inzurance uill take care of it

it COULD be something of concern, i mean it did catch where the engine is

Insurance company is not happy :winkwink:

Ouch, sucks for that guy.

Its obvious he knew something was wrong before the fire started. The hood was up as the fire was going, you can't just go up to a engine on fire and open the hood. That shows that there was a problem with the car before the fire took place, it was probley a series of events that lead to the fire that was actually preventable. If you think something is wrong with your car and you have a engine that can ignite things very easily due to the heat it lets off, you need to let it cool down before you even go near the hood before working on it. I'm going to bet on lack of coolent + crack in head/head gasket tore up. When you get the mix of lubricant + coolent/or water if your cheap, or possibly even a leak somewhere else in a engine that hot.. Things take a turn for the worse. However I'm not a mechanic or pretend I know ne thing about cars thats just my estimated guess from working on my pos.

Also note theres fire on the ground, means leak or spill, although the fire may have melted through by the time that photo was taken.
