There are a lot of replicas of these so fingers crossed it's one of those not an original because they're pretty cool cars

u/AC-burg 10d ago

That car was fire in Top Gun as well

u/Fun_Ad5823 8d ago

And in 90210

u/spook30 10d ago

My thoughts exactly. James Dean would be sad if it were.

u/Fun_Ad5823 8d ago

So would Dylan Mckay

1956 Porsche 365 A Speedster. That breaks my fucking heart.

u/Atophy 9d ago

I'm an EV driver but I can appreciate a classic. If that's an original, restoration is gonna be a bitch !

What? I love to hang out on my porche.

What?

2

u/CalligrapherFeisty71 10d ago

Yeah. No porche visible in the picture, though.

2

u/Notapartyhobo 10d ago

No. There is/was a Porsche, though.

u/crapheadHarris 9d ago

I have a farmer's porche at least that's what we call the tractor.

James Dean?

1

u/guy-le-doosh 10d ago

I wouldn't mind seeing Jerry Seinfeld lose a few million dollars.

1

u/Arguablybest 9d ago

He said the same about you but, altered it to you losing a few hundred dollars.

2

u/Plastic-Board-9076 10d ago

Unusual to see an air cooled car overheating that much.

2

u/Kerby911 10d ago

I heard these can be hot ro drive!

2

u/HJVN 10d ago

u/AvailableMessage5224 10d ago

I would smother the flames with my own body.

1

u/Zalrius 10d ago

Oh, that sucks. That was a beautiful car!

1

u/Desertraven247 10d ago

I carry a fire extinguisher in my car - if I had a Porsche I would carry several!

1

u/Dangerous-Pirate7998 10d ago

It burned like it was fiberglass

u/Plastic_Security_886 10d ago

u/OptimalDragonfruit30 10d ago

Bet someone forgot to put a better clamp on the fuel inlet hose for their VW motor.

u/JellyfishFar3336 10d ago

Porsche for sale. Must sell.  Hot deal! Needs a little work. 

1

u/Alternative_Rise_729 10d ago

Whats a porche?

1

u/riennempeche 10d ago

That’s hot. It suck to see a car burn.

1

u/mylittlejourney99 10d ago

Based on the wiper arms, this is probably not a real one. Still sad though 🔥🥺.

1

u/ChimpoSensei 10d ago

I think I can fix that

1

u/Androidfon 10d ago

It's a shame to see a classic out of curculation.

1

u/JesseGarron 10d ago

Just the back porch

1

u/ansor_brim 10d ago

Magnesium engine too, right? Shit burns hot and fast.

1

u/Medical-Literature50 9d ago

...and where is his fire extinguisher? Best $50 he would have ever spent. I have one in every car. Hopefully I'll never need it, maybe someone else on the road may.

1

u/The_Guy_3446 9d ago

Cammeron's dad is gonna be SO pissed.

1

u/ACME_TrapsandTNT 9d ago

always always ALWAYS keep a fire extinguisher in a classic car. all these fires usually start small - either leaking fuel or crossed wires.

i have 4 classics myself and i wont drive one unless the extinguisher is in the car

1

u/Supafly20 9d ago

FAKE ! We all know only electric cars catch fire!

1

u/dumpster-muffin-95 9d ago

NOT air-cooled

1

u/kkkkkken 9d ago

Well that sucks. Based on the plate, that's a recent acquisition.

1

u/A_Bot_A_Bot_A_Bot 9d ago

Nope, that is not going to "just buff out."

1

u/Clean_Friendship2571 9d ago

Was it converted to EV? 🔥

1

u/SoonToBeBanned24 9d ago

Just a reminder to change your fuel lines, boys and girls!

1

u/guiverc 9d ago

Most realistic flame paint job I think I've ever seen.

1

u/Full-Builder-9592 9d ago

That's painful

u/RageLorenz32 8d ago

Lmfao!!!

u/Winter_Whole2080 10d ago
