Your Thoughts: Fake or Real?

Fake, my honest first thought as soon as I saw that car then heard it, nope, thats a V6 model, and they don't sound that good. It is funny as hell! And who the heck would be riding in that as a prank and say "your liable for any damages to the car", nah, we'd all be saying "pull this f@#$ing car over now you :cursin: :cursin: and then more :cursin: .........

Yep, its fake, here's the scoop: That Jeff Gordon Terrifying A Car Salesman Pepsi Ad Is Totally 100 Percent Fake

But you got to admit, it's done exactly what Pepsi wants, and that's for you to think about their product.

# Summary Automotive professionals debate whether a viral video of Jeff Gordon pranking a car salesman during a test drive is authentic or staged, with members pointing out inconsistencies like mismatched vehicle years and suspicious details. The thread eventually reveals the video is a Pepsi advertisement that was intentionally fake, though several posters defend its entertainment value and note that similar prank videos (like Kyrie Irving's Uncle Drew) blur the line between real and staged content. The key insight is that regardless of authenticity, the marketing campaign successfully achieved its goal of generating discussion and engagement around the product.
