Tokyo: Ferrari 458 Spider bursts into flames one hour after purchase
In Tokyo, a 33-year-old Japanese man named Honkon watched his Ferrari 458 Spider go up in flames just an hour after purchasing it.
The vehicle, a symbol of ten years of savings and personal sacrifice, was completely destroyed in a fire that broke out in the Minato district.
Shortly after taking possession of his brand-new car and proudly driving through the streets of the Japanese capital, the luxury sports car suddenly caught fire for reasons that remain unknown.
Emergency services quickly responded to the scene, but the car was already completely engulfed and beyond saving. The Ferrari 458 Spider, produced between 2011 and 2015, is valued at approximately $249,000.
For Honkon, the vehicle was more than just a material luxury—it represented the culmination of a long personal journey.
