GL brotha.
I live in a small town, only 2 EVO Xs here and everyone grew up knowing my name because of the materialistic possessions i've had. Haters accumulate because of it so that's the only thing I could think of - besides my x girlfriend who i had broken up with in Feburary.. she sent me a weird text but apparently she was out of town when it happened.

if any of the fuel line fittings melted, then it might not be arson. just staying.
no comment, all work was done by a shop.

That definitely look like arson. Fire started in the interior.

I gotta ask though, has the insurance company paid you out for the car already? I mean, a 12 hour turnaround on paying out a claim is super fast. Especially when arson is involved. Insurance companies usually like to see police reports and get good statements from vehicle owners.

The reason for this is insurance fraud.

Many people who owe more than a car is worth, are sick of making payments or cannot unload it simply report the car stolen or burn it to the ground.

I am not saying that you set your car on fire. Please don't take it that way. Just consider it from an insurance company or outside persons perspective.

I noticed from some earlier posts that (if it was indeed you that posted) that you are 19 years old. It appears that you have already owned some high end cars (an STI I believe) and that you also own another WW Evo. Older Post

At 19 years old, I don't see how that is really possible without being quite wealthy or having some very creative financing. If you have gone the financing route, than thats going to be some other flags to be looked at. Does he have a job to pay for all these car payments?...

Who are his enemies? And what has he done (or what have his enemies perceived that he has done) to burn his vehicle in front of his house? Cause that is a powerful message to send.

Just prepare yourself for the questions. They may come. And it may complicate your payout. Then again, they may never come. Good luck. Its a crappy situation.
This happened a couple weeks ago, they just paid out on it this week and so i picked up a WW X

Essentially, someone hated you THAT MUCH to do this to you. So the real question is, wtf have you been doing while driving in your Evo?

b) Insurance fraud. I'll leave it at that.
the question You're asking if what have i been doing. I dont even drive spiritually in town for i would have to sell it if i got a speeding ticket - i couldn't afford the insurance. I used to play world of warcraft so thats why i have the plates . I dont rice in town, i had a civic when i was 16. Im past those days.

But that sucks about your car. Have you pissed off any women lately? I doubt it was a dude. If you **** off a guy, they'll mostly want to kick your *** but if you **** off a lady, well they'll get us where it hurts...our cars.

I broke up with a girl who was sort of crazy at the end of the relationship, i told the police the only person i could think of really was my ex girlfriend because she sent me a text that said "You can delete me off facebook and change your number, but you can't change your address" but apparently she was out of town when it happened

Does she have a new boyfriend that thinks you gave her the clap?

But no. That really blows. Words cannot express how I would feel if my RA was subjected to a 3 AM arson attack.

Thats a complete lie. Everyone and their mom say "they were out of town when it happened."

Did she know you loved your car? I'm pretty sure it was her or someone do it for her.

If this was CSI she would already be locked up

But seriously this is one of the most insane things I've heard happening in real life. I would be freaked out if someone toasted my car like that. I can't imagine.

I wouldn't completely rule your ex out - this is right up the alley of "crazy jilted ex" behavior. Even if she was "out of town" and has an alibi, she could have paid someone to do it. She could still be connected in some way.

Anyways, good luck with everything , hope things work out with insurance and everything
