I thought the picture was pretty striking... and a good example of the kind
of image that can only be captured with a fisheye lens.

On the OT subject of cars burning, I've seen one go up in flames, and once
they start they are pretty hard to put out. If a spark from the 12v DC
current used for everything from dashboard lights to power windows to seat
heaters gets loose and ignites something, there's usually nothing you can do
to stop it. Under the hood oil and gas will burn, especially if the gas gets
set off you are best to just get away. So this might have been a case of a
broken part, stray spark, or poor maintenance causing a fire that once
started consumed the whole car...
