But if this were real---shame on the salesman for the mistake of not getting a copy of the license and insurance BEFORE the test drive.

There isn't much he could have said to the cops - considering he gave consent for the test drive ther4e was no "theft"..

I am certain that this video was pre-planned but not faked. I have taken dealers on test drives alot (not extreme like this, but just for spirited drives). That guy really pushed it, but that sales guy was a real push o

Hmm, I'd say fake. Out of car shots had to be planned.

Yep I did a test drive at like 8 at night... So that's still possible. And I didn't sit down to figure out numbers before, so all of it's possible. And for the shots on the outside from the sidewalk I think there was 3 of them and 2 cameras. You could hear the guy at the beginning say, "Got the other camera?" And I think the dude just kept driving by the dealership on purpose so his buddy could film the burnout.

It's real, there friends of a friend of mine. It's in the scandalous racing video. When you wave enough money like they do, they got to do a lot of dumb and fun things.

It seems fake cause the salesmen is alittle too keen to give the car to him to drive it. also why is everything beeped out?
