Damn that sucks....like somebody else said at least nobody was hurt. Hope your insurance company does right by you on your loss. Keep us up to date on what happens.

sorry for your loss. helplessly watching as your car burns and as the fireman swings an axe onto the hood in order to break off the latched areas and raise the hood to put out the fire would sicken me. its just a horrible experience and my condolences go out to you for the loss of your C4.

Sorry for your loss. Hopefully you can find another C4 as beautiful as yours was. Keep your head up.

That sucks and we feel for you. I've lost a couple of cars over time too, none to fire though. Important thing to remember is it's just a car. There are others. Thank God for all your blessings and hug those you love, that;s what really matters. Then have fun looking for a replacement car.

Thats really too bad, car looked nice. I am hearing of many C4 fires and there has to be a common facture behind these fires. Makes me think about coming home after a cruise at night and parking the car in the garage, who knows what could happen. Scary.
Glad no one is hurt.

That'll buff right out!!!
Just goofing...trying to get a smile.
Be thankful it happened there and not after you wheeled it into your garage...could've been MUCH worse!!! My garage is right under my bedroom.
THAT would have made a mess!!!!
Glad everyone is OK!!! Time for some Christmas shopping!!!!!
Like everyone else said...I hope your insurance carrier treats you right.
