Flaming red RX8
 
I saw this on a news site and I hope this isn't one of you guys. I don't see any impact, and the headlights are still on. He must've got outta there quick...

HOLY SH1T! That's just sad:tear:

The Drunk IT Guy 03-25-2008 02:59 PM

I'm wondering if it didn't start in the trunk, it's open.. And even wierder is that it seems the rear doors are missing...

lesper4 03-25-2008 03:00 PM

wow!

dozer 03-25-2008 03:00 PM

GRAN MIERDA!!!! QUE PASO!! oh man that licks big fat cheesy ass!

alz0rz 03-25-2008 03:00 PM

that looks horrible! poor VR :(

looks like possible a fuel line break?

Redpit10 03-25-2008 03:02 PM

Could be from a high powered amp. I've seen systems catch fire before, but never like that. All you need is a spark though.

Wargoose 03-25-2008 03:13 PM

I wonder if I could get those rear tires cheap...

...though I'd probably have to bring my own spatula.

Those melted piles next to the car are the rear doors :)

SideOfBacon 03-25-2008 03:38 PM

wonder if he would sell me his front rotary accent?

thebiggdaddy 03-25-2008 03:45 PM

Hopefully, he or she got out safely.

Jedi54 03-25-2008 03:50 PM

whoa, that really sucks! Hope the driver was okay.

CompMan 03-25-2008 03:54 PM

brings a tear to my eye.

DOMINION 03-25-2008 03:58 PM

My Gawd thats sad :(
This is why I keep a box cutter in my center arm rest and I'm going to get a small fire extinguisher!

JRichter 03-25-2008 04:20 PM

dizzam...

TopGear8 03-25-2008 04:37 PM

Damn that's terrible.

why do both threads about this say "some news site" without an actual link to the source:spank:

I'm voting insurance fraud. 18mpg + car loan + adjustable APR mortgage == torched 8.

Wonder if having cat delete would have helped in burning up excess fuel thus stopping the fire :) hope they are alright.
