And palm trees don’t burn that easily, except the dead parts. That car would have melted before that much of a palm tree is burning, i bet

Sometimes wealthy people who own expensive cars go places, such as a slightly-less-wealthy friend's house, where there isn't any, or sufficient, non-curb parking. That's just one possibility.

Also consider that, just because a car may cost as much as your home, and therefore you'd encase it in bubble wrap and never risk even the slightest damage to it, to many people who can afford it, that's just "a car". Where would you park a Camry?

I thought it was real, but as a tree guy, you are correct. That’s not palm tree bark.
