LOL Im sure the managers know about it. But the owner of the Dealership might have something to say.

Someone has to break them in right. Hopefully they headed to the Auto Cross track the next day.

Yeah real bright move if they didnt have the right to do so.

Anyway, 12.3 aint bad. Thats enough to suprise a few cars on the street. I bet from a roll they are just nasty.

thats funny. bet they would have run a bit faster if they had taken all that protective plastic off of the seats for weight reduction.

I'm going to guess it was probably the owner of the dealer and someone else with him, it would be hard to sneak away with one of those as a demo, let alone two as a demo I'd assume. It would suck to be the guy pictured staring at the time slip though...

My vote is the owner of the dealerships kid and a buddy.

I would expect that a dealership would notice if TWO of thier brand new sportscars were suddenly missing.

One time when I was at GLD there was a brand new 350Z with dealers tags and plastic. I suspect it was the same guys/dealer.
