TC on fire!.......Literally!

We were driving and the traffic just stopped. My friend mike took these pictures with his camera. I couldnt believe what I was seeing this is a brand new scion tc. The driver said that he was driving and he smelt smoke, he pulled over to the side of the road and then his scion started catching on fire.

Can anyway guess what went wrong? Because I never heard of this happening to a japanese car, maybe a Ford or something.......

Officially my new background!.... I wonder if they left something in the engine bay, or screwed up somewhere on initial inspection...

That's random and tragic... glad he's ok though.

Turns out he didn't get a tC. It must've been a Fiero with a bodykit.

On a serious note, that is insane. I wonder what he could've done to cause that, if it was human error.

This is wrong of me to say, but that first photo does look really cool... until you realize it is not photoshopped.
