during the nasty morning commute yesterday my car started smoking...
I pulled to the side of the highway opened my hood - and my car was ON FIRE!
flames the works.
luckily someone pulled over with fire estinguisher pretty quickly.
When i left for the road i asked my co-worker to drive my car back and forth to the post office - which he didn't do. So it was for 3 1/2 months. one of the wires casing must have cracked, causing a short and ultimately a fire.
it didn't spread to the engine, and seems to be repairable. my mechanic is working on it...
I'm car shopping now - let me know if you know of anyone that is selling a car. My boss may help finance me as well.
i really don't want to drive the convertible ever again.
