Both rides cost the exact same amount and were less than half what a cab would have been
That's interesting. In Los Angeles, there are fairly high standard for the car used, i.e. must be 2010 or newer, 4-door sedan, etc. I do know that these standards vary from city to city but it sounds like someone was using a car that was not authorized for Uber. It's conceivable that he registered with a different car but it was in the shop or(?)

I've never ridden in an old or dirty car in L.A. or Minneapolis. Some drivers could back off with the car wash air fresheners, (think Breaking Bad), but that's another subject.
