Oh, the Humanity--And, then there are only 917 left on earth

This is one expensive wreck, wonder how much his/her car insurance went up? Wrecked 918 Up for Salvage

… of the 918 918s.
The very first week of delivery here in the US one caught on fire in Chicago at a gas station and was a total loss.

Then there were 917….

Here's one in China

Then there were 916 ...

I have heard of 4 or 5 other 918s that have been totaled also, so there are about 910 of them left.

Happy Porscheing,

There is also one that burned at a gas station in Toronto last yesr
The owner kf that one spjlled a bit of gas which ran along the body a d hit the exhaust. The filler looks cool mounted up high in the hoop, but you really have to be careful when filling it.

yes, this is exactly the problem; very hot components right by the gas filler. the person i know who has one said that the dealer recommended driving to the gas station on electric power only so the gas engine doesn't get hot.
