    that looks so strangely familiar....oh ya now i remember, an almost identical situation(save for it being a turbo causing the fire) happened to a rental mustang in my driveway once. weird part is, no one was in the car. she just spontaneously combusted one night. very strange sensation standing there watching a car burn, and not being able to do anything about it.

    I was driving once and I have smoke like that coming into the cabin. pulled over and found out that one of the hoses came loose and started to burn on the manifold. Glad my situation didn't turn out like this. But damn, I feel sorry for that dude.

    I don't think that I could handle it. Watching my car burn and not being able to do anything.

    I must say tho, the music fits the vid quite well. But man, that is rough I tell ya! I first saw this vid on vortex and apparently the owner of the car didnt want the vid to go around but it got out pretty quickly...
