As annoying as those two clowns are, I don't think it is the same car as the plate looks to be a different color. This video does show, however, that you need not have the intellegence of an artichoke to drive or be a passenger in, a $450K car.

That's an Arizona dealer plate on the crashed car. And the phone number on the back of the flatbed is also AZ. The video car has a New Jersey plate, I think.

I detect the foul smell of...jealousy!

Some guy posted his GT left at the shop experiance...
Seems to go perfect with the movie, but on the opposite coast.
Here's the story.

shop

Well I have gathered my thoughts, tried for almost three days to rein in my emotions as well as spoken to both of the other two shops which are authorized to do tech inspections for FOC (on my 1 1/2 month old Carrera GT). Both said it is a rigorous VISUAL inspection which results in ZERO driving of the car - as I expected! They were both floored to learn this shop justified abusing a customer and his/her car as some sort of responsibility required by the tech inspection. Absurdly enough, he still thinks he did nothing wrong!!!!!!!!!!!

Here are some notable quotes from xxxxx, the owner of xxxxx Car Care ("car care" being a bit ironic in this case) who was the offender. It is immediately ajacent to M.O.M.:

"did you know your exhaust glows when it is hot?" (never seen that myself nor has anyone behind me in several spirited mountain drives commented on this).

"the traction control on this car in first (gear) is useless" (fwiw, you have to give it a LOT of throttle to make the traction control useless in first gear and this suggests he was enjoying my tires he didn't have to buy himself).

he stated, "the car has some wander during high speed cornering". to which i said i'd had it at some fairly high speeds in corners without experiencing any wander. he then looked over at the guy who does detailing for the shop who was apparently a passenger in the joy ride and said "what did we hit in that one corner? about 150?" to which the detailer responded "yes, 150". he then went onto say proudly "it was 16 mph more in that corner than any other car i've taken through there."

in addition to the detailer, a director of the FOC was there and likely heard a great deal if not all of this conversation.

that is pro skater Kerry Getz in the driver's seat in the video. They had posted on 6speedonline about getting to test drive a C-GT, but they didn't crash it. Sorry, you're wrong Eric.

Sure looks like a NJ dealer plate. Wish I could read it.

might be a pro skater but he aint no pro driver haha. i think the only skater that i would let drive a car like that would be tony hawk or bam margera. tony can replace it if he brakes it and so can bam, not to mention bam has quite a collection of cars to begin with.

so your saying this car was in for a "visual inspection" and they took it out on the road and drove it around like jackasses? well they did give it a visual, from another car but still that sucks if your the owner.
