if my memory serves me correct, that black LS460 isn't the only 1 that caught fire. Here's a white 1 that almost ended up like the black car.






The cause of fire of this car is that a radar was plugged into the cigarette lighter.

本日消防立会いの下、ディーラーでバラしました。
結果はレーダーを後着けしたさいに、シガーから電源を
採っている所が怪しいとの事でした。

電装屋の綺麗な仕事ですが可能性が高いみたいです

P.S.: Please correct me if my translation is incorrect..THX

This is sad to see...why would a radar melt the car?? Does it draw that much power?
