I hear it's a common case for Ferarri - cars that would just catch on fire. I remember a picture of a 430 that did the same thing in the streets of Hong Kong. Dam shame.

That's the Alberta, Canada Enzo that caught fire near Penticton, B.C. a few weeks ago. Documented on Ferrari Chat and other websites...

These pictures appear to be taken on the highway into either Kelowna or Penticton...dang I miss home!

Shame that the car caught fire.

Thought that was Okanagan lake in the background. I drive that stretch several times a week. What a shame. Sure seems to be lots of Enzos leading very short lives.

Seems Italian exotics do have a proclivity to torch themselves.. This one on Monday http://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/n...ere.5431733.jp

Wow, sorry to see that... It brings a whole new meaning to "that's one hot car"

That really hurts to see a rare and stunningly beautiful car like that go up in flames. UGH!

My old 348 had an electrical fault that also almost caused a fire years ago. These italian cars are really scary sometimes.... sad to see the enzo go that way...

thats why I will never go back to an Italian car any time soon... though I have seen a couple of 911s and 993s burn as well...

I wonder how many Enzos are now left.

With its limited production, and so many of them either crashing or catching fire inexplicable every month, there could not be that many left.
