No I'm driving the camera car. It appears he left the lugs off after putting the chromes on. This is the same Dealer that did this to the Viper earlier this Year.

That one was a porter on a joy ride that did that I use to be a porter, we had a single turbo manual mustang (490rwhp) that would come in every once in a while. The guy asked me to beat on it a little because the down pipe on the turbo was touching the oil filter and rubbed a hole in it, so they installed a shorter one and the guy said make sure to give it a good test drive to make sure it doesn't bang or rub any time. Fun car
