i wonder if the driver got out okay or he got bbq-ed. the fire seems to be concentrated in the cabin area which is weird. most car fires occur in the engine bay... maybe the car was just torched by an enemy or vandalist...

btw, the seller has a sense of humor. he/she lists the interior color as "brown"...

A good coating of Zymol and the car would be good as new

Damn....that's sad...

The fire almost looks like it could have been at the very edge of the engine bay -- I think half the valve cover is black instead of red. Not much of a firewall if it spread to the rest of the car like that though!
