I keep seeing all these stories and pictures about burning Ferraris, and other Italian cars.
Are people abusing them, or are they just not built right anymore?
Makes me wonder.

hot exhaust and cats that runs under and engine that may leak oil...
and an owner that doesn't know better..

Or maybe an upcoming $200,000 balloon payment caused the fire......

You know that is an excellent question. I've thrown old lawn mowers into the trash fire and the engine blocks melt into a puddle.

Yeah, good point. 2/3 of it is good. No problem for the guy with the beard. Wouldn't even get his hands dirty doing it.

Ferrari rims are made from Kryptonite.

WTF?

Increase screen zoom to 400%, find magnifying glass, try to focus through readers...no good, try to focus through bifocals...no good, but yeah, I THINK you are right on the pink shoes.

I'dda never noticed, but yes, I sure think he is. Must have happened on the West Coast.

Wheels are probably forged aluminum.

As for the pink shoes. Watched highlights of LA marathon. Seems to be the new style in running shoes to have your feet glowing. My neighbor wears tennis ball yellow shoes to run.

BTW, you guys study pics much better than I do.

Me either Scott, so Matt should be a detective-type.

But he was sure right. Goes to prove you can flame and run a marathon at the same time. On the West Coast of course. Oh I LOVE your shoes! What time did you run? Let's go to Ben and Jerry's and hold hands celebrate!

they are on the edge of new composites, long term heat and electrical signatures...never seen before in car builds.

one realm is bullshitting another, I could say.
