Bad test drive (Pictures)

These pictures were posted on a local car forum. One of the posters works at Orlando Infiniti where this happened. He said the car was being test driven. The sales guy was at the wheel when the accident happened. Supposedly, a car was driving on the wrong side of the road and he had to get out of the way. What sucks the most was the car was already sold and supposed to be delivered to the owner in the next few days.

Maybe the higher power wants the owner to wait for the 08?

Exactly,why would he be "test driving" it if it was already sold? I would love to hear what the outcome is when he explains this to the buyer.

Yea - if they have another IP there - they'd probably swap out parts to it and let it go.

Hope that dealer is reputable and integrous and does the right thing...
