A Tesla Model S Plaid, billed as the "world's quickest production car," burned to the hubcaps three days after it was delivered to an unidentified new owner in Pennsylvania.
The driver, who spoke on the condition that his still smoking hair and eyebrows not be shown on camera, said that he was impressed with his "Plaid".
"I mean ... three days from delivery to conflagration... you gotta admit that's world class quick. I don't know if a tanker full of gasoline would have erupted that quick."
He went on to say that being trapped inside when the fried electric circuits locked him in the car was a bit unsettling. "Now I know what it's like to be burned at the stake," he joked to reporters.
