458 [2009-2015] Ouch... Ferrari 458 Italia Lights Up in Paris

[PanterroR]

The owner of this Ferrari 458 Italia was in for a nasty surprise when his 570-horsepower Italian supercar started sending smoke signals from the engine compartment while he was driving on the streets of Paris. The cause of the fire remains a mystery but you can see the results in the photo gallery that was posted by a member of the Autogespot forums after the break.

A proper sportscar should be prone to set itself on fire, that is part of the charm.

I'm sure this is a common problem for Ferrari's in Arizona.

I hope Ferrari will find the reason why this new car suddenly burn in fire. Maybe they should recall it..

It is made by human beings, it is bound to fail at some point. Ferraris have a fine tradition of spontaneous combustion...

Half a year after launch isn't too reassuring.
