Lamborghini Aventador on FIRE (literally)
So Im on my way to the long beach GP with a friend heading northbound on the 73 toll road, and we spot a black aventador passing us heading southbound. Right as it passes us a HUGE fire erupts in the engine bay. We instantly get off at the next exit, turn around catch up to the scene, and watch it burn to the ground.

They suspect it was from an oil leak

Just like that.....BOOM! Did he say it was a dealer car? He certainly wasn't upset....
Whatever it's worth maybe I should have an extinguisher under my seat!

A frd of mine said all the Italian exotics are meant to be lightly used once in a while and if you are to daily drive them, they will burn you like a ribeye on red hot grill. And I think that is true now.

wow - luckily the guy got out.
While I'm sure there's a good explanation for the fire....really?!?....should I have to worry about spontaneous combustion in a car I might have bought for close to $500k? With that, I'd still buy an Aventador tomorrow if I could haha. |

Another supercar on fire. I'm sensing a trend. Those rear engines seem to run so damn hot!! What a shame for such an awesome car.
I bet when that guy saw the smoke and flame his heart skipped a beat. |

I am a big Lamborghini fan and like most of others will agree, even if the beast tries to kill me, I still love it unconditionally. Though, the only time I will buy one in this life is probably with a jackpot lotto winning ticket. In reality, I am hoping of getting a 911(997 or 991 don't matter) and drive it across north American. I really want this to be done within the next few years before my health sets limitations.
