I'm more puzzled why there is an upside down cart in the parking lot.

Who's going to NOLA today to watch the Porsches race?
I hope they have a Singer Porsche on display.

Probably got tossed over when all the water bottles of accelerant blew up.

Geez, what model was it to make it worth 200k?

991 Turbo S is about $185,000 base.

Singer. Base model starts at 300k, all the trimmings will run 500k. Its the ultimate Porsche.

Interesting that the flames do not seem to be coming from the engine compartment. Could be electrical in the dash, I suppose. Or arson as others have suggested.

Looks like the left side of the engine is on fire to me.

Oil line near driver's side turbo let go. Oil hot turbo. Fire. Done

But CAD says gas powered cars don't catch fire like this....

Yep,
Or a hot rotor got some brake fluid on it and it spread to,other areas.
An way to know the year?

the video says 2014. All 700+ 2014 GT3 models were recalled for fires also with the engines replaced.
