Funny Story from my past. alot like what happenned here. In 1997,a friend of mine was looking to buy a car for his wife. We went to the Nissan dealer (she liked the altima). In the lot was a 200 SX SE-R. Decent little car, kinda cramped for me though. Anyway, we looked at the 200, dealer asked if we wanted to take it for a test drive. He said it looked like we knew speed (dumbass dealers, i had the stang with me). So we went for a drive, the dealer came with us. Car was qwuick for what it was. it would hang with a v-6 mustang. So we get back to the dealership. Dealer dude says "fast car, huh? bet it's as fast as that Mustang!" I said "not even close". He kept egging me on, until finally I said" wanna see what a fast car is like?" So he got in. I took him down the street, 1/4 throttle, then 1/2 throttle. At 1/4 throttle my car was faster than the 200. So at 1/2 throttle, i said "what do you think, faster than that nissan?" he says " about the same" and i floored it. I love it when you can pin your passenger to the back of their seat he at first was silent, and then he started freaking out. so i slowed down, and went back to the dealership. he got out, and i noticed his knuckles were white from holding the handle on the door. the only thing i could say was "told you so". friend ended up buying the 200, felt bad foir the guy
