You’re in Malaysia and there’s poor everywhere, living day by day. And there you are, driving around in V8-powered supercar that sounds like the noise of excess and superficiality. So of course you are going to be cursed and the jinx will stick to your car, even if it’s red.
This latest fire from Malaysia proves that supercars in general, and Ferraris in particular have some sort of inherent conceptual flaw. Their high-strung engines, injection systems and hot exhaust all combine to make this into a time-bomb.

Thankfully, the F430 isn’t a top-shelf product, having been replaced by the 458 Italia, and its makes for a very entertaining photo. These Italian monsters need better cooling systems and a radical rethink, because the number of cars that burn is astronomical.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
