A special Interior Ministry operations center monitoring the violence said some 60 vehicles were torched in the Seine-Saint-Denis region by early Friday and a total of 165 throughout the Paris metropolitan area. Some 40 vehicles were torched in the Val d'Oise area northwest of Paris.
On the bright side I suppose with fewer cars this shoud help France meet it's Kyoto Treaty obligations.

Update: It's worse than I thought:
Overnight in the Paris region, 420 cars were set ablaze, up from previous nights, the Interior Ministry said. It said five police were slightly injured by thrown stones or bottles.
