:grinno: That's so sad. Funny - but sad. That salesboy was SOOOOOO hurting, I mean one look at him and I thought this must be staged. What a pussboy - and an IDIOT for letting that guy drive without any I.D!
And the camera? Uh, no we're not up to anything :rolleyes: (OMG).
People are so stupid. Those two dudes were classic but its incompetence like that on the dealers part that blows my mind. And it’s not just with test drives – a buddy of mine is a technician at a local Chevy dealer and I was once thinking (Shhhhhhh) about flipping my babe for the last black ’02 SS they had on their lot about a year ago (even dreamed about going for one of the demo Vettes as well). As soon as I inquired about the cars my buddy just looked at me stonefaced, called the other shop dudes over and they just started laughing. The SS with its 1500+ Kms on it had already received seven tune-ups for apparently every problem you can imagine, and they described how repeatedly stupid the salespeople were for “killing” the Vettes every night – their idea of keeping them ready is starting them up in the morning, revving the shit out of the engine, then parking it outside and repeating the process before they park them back inside at night. So even the exotic Corvette, seemingly untouched and virgin like dealers insist as the Vette is not available for test drive, is in fact being ruined by the idiots working at the dealer!

holly crap. I was just waiting for the sales guy to get pushed out the door. I bet he doesn't let another punk with no ID take out car again. What a dumb ass.

wow i actually felt bad for the dealer. he was very young and inexperianced, probably within his first week. i mean, if you see a new cobra in your first week, or at all even, then you are going to get notice from the manager. they did drive up in a bens... i would thik they were serious too... but still, shuold have never let him drive with out any ID.

I think it's staged. How did they get so many different camera angles? How come the salesman never talked to the cameraman? If it is real, someone's going to get fired really soon. Either way, I love the car. My friend has the exact same Cobra.
