no but he screamed a bit and then wipped out his cell and called 911 and then called the dealer. after the hocus pocus was over we all went back to the dealership where the salesmen all gave me the stink eye. i slowly gathered my things, did something like this.. and was on my way.

Whoa! Awesome...

I think what I'll do on this fine Sunday is leave mine parked safe and sound in my driveway, go down to my nearest Nissan dealership and wreck one of my own!!! Sounds like a hell of a good time!

Who's with me? Let's keep the numbers of these vehicles low so that we drive "rare and exotic" cars... teehee

So what happens? Is it their insurance that covers it or yours? I feel like all they do when I test drive is just get ahold of my driver's license.

Was everybody OK, For awhile here in Missouri you actually could test ride a motorcycle. I rode a CBR929 before i bought the thing, i think that is nuuuuts. This was about 65 miles south of St.louis, they don't offer that anymore

Once the car finally came to a stop, that was a perfect moment to slowly turn your head toward the salesman and give him a Chris Farley Tommy Boy "What'd you doooooo?"

Sort of a dumb move if you ask me. You should hope that the dealership doesn't sue you for the damage since you were driving recklessly. If the salesman asked you to drive it off a bridge would you have done that as well? I don't think the Z is for you. You obviously can't handle it, and you could hurt someone else.

The dealership plates are there because they have insurance coverage for test drives. The customer can be on the hook for the deductible however.
