That's the new 07(with 161hp). He peeled out till the tires caught on fire.

 

LOL.

But...TIRE*

 

I'm still not buying this is real.

User has only posted twice ever. Only the pictures given as evidence.

Until I see more information (Location, news reports, etc.) I'm calling BS.

 

It's the newest, most powerful set of Oznium 'Inferno' undercar lights - bright eh?

 

I understand your skeptisism... the first pics quality is so good it's that old saying (too good to be true) but if you study the second pic, it's more convincing. Although the fact that the SL member posting is so new and has no history on this site does raise eyebrows, especially since this is their first post( one alledging a tC falls victim to a car fire, which could be devistating news for owners and toyota).

 

First off all....ive been coming to this websitre for months reading about everyones tC. I have a 05 black sand peal tc myself. I just joined the website "just" to show yall what i have seen. Tommorrow i am going call my friend (the cameraman) to send me the other pics. And this is probaly not going to be on the news anywhere near you, I live is palm beach county about 45 mins north of Miami and I didnt even see it on the news in my area.

Anyway i am not a loser who would spend hours on photoshop to show something fake, or just post this blog to bull____ you.....the pictures are evident......the car is burining, and it a real photo.

this is the camera that was used to take this photo. You see this camera at sport event, weddings, etc. You will have to pay around $1700 (without the lens) for this camera. As you can "see" this camera take "unbelievable" photos...............

 

OMG~

OMG is all I can say!

I think its a real picture! I will try to get ahold of the dealership today and find out any information that i can.. I will post up if I do.. Anyone who lives on the east coast of FL, try to do the same..

 

Like I said before its deffinetly real. THE FENDER IS MELTING AND DRIPPING TO THE GROUND. THE TIRE IS BURNING AROUND THE RIM. THE FLAMES ARE IN THE SIDE VIEW MIRROR. THE FLAMES ARE REFLECTED PERFECTLY IN THE GLASS.
I am real good with photoshop. This would be some crazy graphics editing to fake. You would have to create your own fender that looks like a tC fender but make it flared out and melting. Look at the a pillar falling apart. The fire around the tire would be hard as crap to do. The reflections in the side of the car show its on a highway. And the burning piule of debris under the car is exactly how it would be.

Just because some people on here take photos they think are good, doesnt mean others cant take better ones.

 

ha ha ha . tc's ha ha ha ha ha ha ha hah ah a ha ha ha ha ha ha


sorry . but that is very disconcerning . wonder what happened.

 

the owner of the dealership Mr. Earl Stewart Toyota himself is trying to get ahold of the customer....

If I hear of the outcome or anything, I will let you all know!

 

IMO, that looks kinda cool. =P *knocks on wood

 

well as someone who works with photoshop probably 9 hours every day, I can vouch and say that this pictures was deffinitely not photoshopped. And was taken with that camera. If you have the program, open the file and go to file->file info. There you will see the metadata, or Ill just post up a screenshot


oh, and here is a video of a gti up in flames

 

Wow. Depressing. I don't know what I'd do if I had to watch that happen to my car..

 

It is absolutely real... I spent 10 minutes just looking at all the little P-Chop giveaways and there isn't one in the pic... it's flawless. the front side skirt melting distortion, the mirror melted, the apillar all burnt out, and the reflection of the mirror with flames on the side of the car, along with the traffic you can see on the side...

Amazing lucky shot, and killer camera...

 

UPDATE~

Customer called the dealership back...

she is ok, vehicle was a total loss, waiting on insurance to determine "cause"......


They are helping the customer out with a loaner vehicle......

In the dealer world, It makes me proud to know that "Great" people are still out there!

codose to the Stewart Family! They ROCK! and I would recomend them at the drop of a dime to anyone...

THEY TRULY CARE!

Always Moved By Scion!

awesome great to here everyone is fine!!!


Nice camera btw!!

 

Just what sosgal721 said. To those think its photoshopped, better just take a step backwards.

Original EXIF data is pretty hard to alter. The only image that was run through an image manipulation program (aka Photoshop) was the last one most likely to zoom up on the license plate.

 

That is superb picture qualitly!!

 

thats what happens when you buy an auto and you realize you made a huge mistake and want a 5spd! lol

 

The pictures are real, having seen a couple of car fires. But that's irrelevant. The point is, unless you're in a bumblef*** of a town or state, it won't make it to the news. It's a car fire with no one getting injured or dying.

Damn shame though. I hope it's not anything caused by Toyota or the manufacturer of the vehicle... getting the first recall done was a bit of a pain (though the model car was nice).
