After sitting remotely in a parking lot for 56 hours, key was turned to start car. Immediately, a loud pop/bang was heard from beneath the hood, along with smoke. Opening hood revealed low flames covering the engine. Hood was immediately closed, and fire department was called. Car burned for approximately 15 minutes, until extinguished. Front end, up to fire wall, was destroyed. Hood and engine were burned away, and tires popped.
