My car is a auto. All I did was punch the gas for a second and the car took off. I wanted to see how quick it accelerated. This was during my test drive.

I just find it amazing that you can buy a car without driving it and testing to see how it handles and how much power it has etc.

When you guys test drove your cars, did you not drive them somewhat hard?

As for the salesperson. Yes I did believe him. I had no reason not too.
