100 doesn't seem too ridiculous to reach if they explode there.

i thought i remembered reading somewhere that on a real hot day the inside of a black car gets to almost 120-130 degrees

[Even]

It was a sunny day. The automobile was parked with the sun to the rear. It was a dark blue, so it probably absorbed heat quicker and more efficiently than a light colored vehicle.

The interior and exterior readings were compared at timed increments.

The interior of the car was cooled to 83 degrees by the vehicle air conditioner, the engine was turned off and the monitoring was started. After only fifteen minutes the automobile interior heated to a deadly 120 degrees.

Here are the results:
