He saved up for 10 years to buy a Ferrari, and it caught fire as soon as he drove it off the lot.
Flame Highway.- A guy saved up for 10 years to buy a Ferrari (assuming there's a halfway legal job that would allow him to buy one of these cars in 10 years), and as soon as he got it... it burst into flames.
The aspirational events took place in Japan, when a music producer (ah, that's it) posted that his newly acquired luxury car caught fire just hours after he first drove it.

The subject, named Honkon , dreamed of having a Ferrari in his garage, so he devised a plan that involved saving for more than a decade. Thus, he finally published on the X network that he had already picked up his Ferrari 458 Italia Spider , with a naturally aspirated engine, for which he paid millions of yen (264,155 euros or more than 6 million pesos), with the small detail that the pleasure lasted only 30 minutes.
That Ferrari was a good investment, huh?As Honkon drove his vehicle along Tokyo's Shuto Expressway, the Italian sports car caught fire, to the surprise of all the drivers... and himself.
"It was reduced to ashes an hour after delivery. I think I'm the only one in all of Japan who's experienced something like this," explained the man, who next time will better look for land without grasslands, which don't catch fire.

Although the fire was extinguished, the only part of the car that survived was the front end, and now we'll have to review the policy to see what type of damage it covered... and how much the deductible will be.
And in case you missed it: they arrested a guy who was begging for money at the San Marcos Fair, complete with a Chucky doll.
