The REAL bite is they had JUST SOLD the home!!!! Wonder if the insurance company will pay wat the house was WORTH, or what they payed for it. The Annual percapita income of Bloomfield Hills is around 500,000 per year. Them folks is NOWHERE NEAR sufferin. AND the Lambo WAS his WIFES car. There 16 year old kid was trying to start it. ;)

It probably melted. I've seen a lot of cars burned up in forest fires and you will just see a burned out shell, the steel will survive but everything else burns or melts. Steel wheels will remain, but if they had alloy wheels there will be puddles of metal where the wheels were. I've seen aluminum engine blocks turn to puddles under the car too, which is pretty impressive when you think about the heat it takes to completely melt an engine protected in the engine compartment.

Thankfully I've only run across unoccupied cars.

Yeah Skip, this came to light within days of another feature Espada that was shown on Jalponik. I wonder if they are one in the same?

I know, but it still looks weird. Usually the wheels survive (tires not ofcourse)

I donno, seems pretty normal to me for an Italian sports car.

Yeah, unless they were Magnesium.
