A devastating fire at Naples Motorsports, a luxury supercar dealership in Florida, has resulted in the destruction of several high-end vehicles. Local media reports indicate that the blaze began when a car parked outside the dealership caught fire, which quickly spread to the building, damaging several exotic cars.

Among the vehicles impacted by the fire was a Maserati GranCabrio and a Rolls-Royce Cullinan. A white Bentley Continental GTC parked nearby was also damaged in the incident. The fire crews responded to the scene at 3:08 a.m. on Sunday morning, managing to contain the flames before further damage could occur. Thankfully, no injuries were reported, though the exact cause of the fire remains under investigation.
This incident marks a significant loss for Naples Motorsports, which made headlines earlier this year for offering a free Rolls-Royce, valued at $240,000, with the purchase of a Bugatti Chiron.
Update: A previous version of this article indicated that a McLaren was in the fire. An official from McLaren reached out to us to clarify that a McLaren model was not involved, and offered this statement:
“According to the owner of the exotic car dealership involved in this thermal incident, there were no McLarens at the scene or involved. It appears to have been an erroneous report in media regarding the identities of the vehicles. Therefore, we do not have any further comment to make.”
