Thats funny! Would'nt it be fun to try that with a GT 500 KR ?

 
Im thinking It was an actor as the used car salesman, Can you imagine any accidents or health issues like a heart attack with the salesman. Pepsi would be so liable I cant even contemplate that they would take that risk in this day and age. I may be wrong, I just can't see them both taking the liability risk. It was great though I loved it but in the back of my mind I kept thinking this couldn't be real. Hope i'm wrong

You are correct. It is fake. -For all the reasons you mention.

Here's what the press is sayin':

That funny little ad that featured Jeff Gordon taking an unsuspecting car salesman for a terrifying test drive? The one that went viral this week? It seemed obvious that it took some liberties with reality, but upon further review, it’s about as real as Manti Te’o's girlfriend.

It seemed implausible that Jeff Gordon would be allowed to drive for all sorts of insurance and contractual buzzkill reasons. Moreover, could Jeff Gordon really do what looked more like stunt driving than racin’? And then there was the whole question of who takes a test drive in a deserted warehouse area (besides ax murderers).

The ad, as Elaine Benes put it, is “fake, fake, fake, fake.”

There was no 2009 Camaro - unless you are Jay Leno

Agree that it is funny
