I feel like there's going to be a thread for every 458 that catches on fire. :lol:

 

[TechArt Dreamer]

I haven't been clicking on any of the fire threads, but I have seen a TON of them on here. WTF is going on?

No offense, Cruizer, but may it be that you enjoy seeing those cars burn and crash?

 

[swordsman]

I think this is the one I'd heard about in China...probably the first one burned in Asia so far.

Crazy. So 10 out of #?

Very good question.......

They should start equipping them with fire extinguishers....

 

[gt2urbo]

and i wanted this as a track car XD. ill wait till the next batch comes lol

 

[hsuanstr]

Its funny how out here in California, there was such a huge emphasis on Lexus' pedal problem. But I have no heard one thing in the new about 458's, esp with the huge demographics of Ferrari drivers out here in So.Cal (LA/OC)

They do, but they end up burning to a crisp too :lol: In all seriousness, by the time the driver pulls over and what not, it is a bit late.

if anything this shows that these cars really do have a problem! when was the last time you guys have ever seen a newly released car with this few units out burn down so much?!

 

[Shawn C]

Ferrari needs to address this!

Yep... Seems like it would be better to admit a problem and fix it rather than seriously hurt someone.

 

[Glockamole]

This almost made me cry...

 

[eXpensiveGears]

this is getting rediculous.

China=World's toilet

You would think ferrari would see this as a HUGE liability, sure exotics have known to occasionally catch fire, but not of this frequency this soon. Are they using poor lines or poor materials/systems to handle the electrical and flammable fluids? Can you imagine if a 458 combusted while it was parked in some collectors garage and it caused damage to other cars yet alone hurt someone if they were trapped in the car? I don't even. . . I am just surprised there hasn't been an outcry yet

 

[CADILLAC]

Isn't an offense! No prob...

No, not really.
To be honest, I'm highly interested in this car.
The first Ferrari, I would buy.
And this is the reason, I do a lot of research.
So I see and search a lot of the Italia.

But I won't buy it with all of these barbecues!
Imho, there is something wrong with the car.
Too much burned down in too less weeks!

On the bright side, if you buy one and decide you don't like it, just torch it. Insurance won't know the difference. :lol:

I hope the driver is OK!
