Things heated up at the New York Auto Show on Thursday when an electrical fire caused a Porsche 911 Turbo to be engulfed in flames.
Video of the incident was posted to Instagram by professional photographer Vlad Shurigin.
An auto show spokesman tells Fox News that the fire was put out in “literally seconds.”
It happened in the Special Exhibits hall in the lower level of the Jacob K. Javitz Convention Center in Manhattan, where a custom car show organized by Dub Magazine was being set up. The event wasn’t yet opened to the public, and there was no additional damage to any other cars or areas of the show.
