He probably works at the Dealer and took it for a test drive after he was supposed to PDI the car, probably not even his,

She was not surprised at all. The entire video was so weird. I really felt sorry for the guy if this is true. So I hope this video was staged.

Oh, she immediately started racing it on public roads. Yes, posting videos of that will get you banned.

I would have expected a better reaction from a gift card for the shoe store.

What was the occasion for spending $70k on a car for a GF?

When I surprised my wife and mother of our 3 kids with the SL 500 few years back, she broke into tears that I did all that for her.

I'd say staged for publicity.

No, ya think?

Could that be the reason for his company name in the corner the entire video and why 3 camera's cover the entire action?

Hmmmm... well, knock me out with a feather.
