szabo_martin Report post Posted August 28, 2013 I'm not some sort of dick that gets off on people wrecking their cars, but I find it's a great site to visit every once and a while to remind myself what can happen in the blink of an eye. When I see a smashed Murci it makes me take stock of my own driving to never let my baby end up against a tree with the front end missing. It also floors me how many Lamborghini's have been written off. I would be curious that out of the production numbers how many Gallardo and Murci's are still on the road?

megachad Report post Posted August 28, 2013 I wonder how many cars have actually caught fire because of after market stereo equipment not being properly installed and fused within 12" of the battery. I have seen so many idiots fuse the positive far enough away for the wire to just catch fire it's ridiculous. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AudiBull Report post Posted August 28, 2013 Abou a year ago I actually went through and counted how many G's had caught fire and had pictures on that site. I think it was close to 50. Maybe they're all owned by clowns who don't know how to keep gas off the headers...Still less than 1% of the cars produced, but it does make you wonder.

Flash Gordon Report post Posted August 28, 2013 Abou a year ago I actually went through and counted how many G's had caught fire and had pictures on that site. I think it was close to 50. Maybe they're all owned by clowns who don't know how to keep gas off the headers...Still less than 1% of the cars produced, but it does make you wonder. I'm sure a good number of those were the result of power steering fluid on a hot engine. There was a massive recall on the early cars. I just discovered that my power steering reservoir was leaking and some PS fluid was dripping onto my headers... I feel like I averted a potential disaster myself (my G sits under my M in my garage..) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Traction Control Off Report post Posted August 29, 2013 Many of the fires are caused by bad accidents, though. And I wonder how many of those accidents were caused by inexperienced/drunk drivers and how many were rental cars. Here in NNJJ alone, we've had 4 or 5 bad exotic rental car wrecks over the last 4 years. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TwilighT Report post Posted September 2, 2013 My ex 2004 Gallardo caught fire too, we had extinguished the fire but repair costs were around $70K This is even half price because I've imported most of the parts my self.. Service guys couldn't find out exactly what caused the fire, they have blamed the non authorized dealer's improper installment of heat shields in rear bumper after paint.
