One of the funniest things I've ever seen
Man, I wish I hadn't been in traffic and could have snapped a picture. 3 guys pushing a stalled Ferrari Testarossa out of a busy street and into a McDonald's parking lot. As I drove by, I rolled down my window and in a fake German accent said "Ja, you should have bought German car!"
The most hilarious part was when it bottomed out as it entered the parking lot due to a slight hill, and the local panhandlers smelled money and came crawling out of the woodwork to help the poor guy. Too funny.

Wow! A stalled 25year-old Italian car. What are the odds.

Testarossa's have an unfortunate history of fuel leaks in the engine compartment that burn the car down to the ground. These guys were lucky they had something that could be pushed!!
Think what I could do to that car with an LS6 - the mind just boggles. A 1,000 HP Testarossa!!

That is awesome. The yelling in a German accent part made my day!
I bet the guy was seething. He should have known better though. I bet an SLR or AMG wouldn't have left him pushing the car.

There's two kinds of people who push cars...those who have, and those who will.
(I pushed one a couple of weeks ago. Some guy blocked me in a parking lot. I "opened" his car, "put" the automatic transmission gear selector in neutral and pushed it back far enough for me to back out.) The nerve.

Probably some sales douche who ran out of gas. Might not have been the cars fault.
It isn't like a myriad of MB's haven't been pushed.......

What's funny? I have seen all kinds of cars stalled or died on the road. Some were out of gas, some were engine fault and some were Loose Nut Behind the Wheel.
Now, if the fault had been the loose nut behind the wheel, it might be more funny. Take the one where this girl had a whole lot of keys and kept trying each one till she found the right one......
