When the tester goes for the car it looks totally stock but its really been tampered and pampered so they can get the best numbers out of it as a point to make it a sales pitch.

Like Altima the fastest N/A Front Wheel Drive Car in America or stuff like that.
That was pretty good BK2, sounds like a good way to prove a point and mabe get it on tape
