He had a backseat 'quickie' with a commercial sex worker, and then (too late) discovered that 'she' was - until quite recently - a 'he'.

After washing the car, he went home, burned all his clothes, and had a 16-hour long hot shower.

He's still in therapy.

Mother-in-law was sitting in the back when, after eating bad chili from Sonic, there was a slight explosion. Even pressure washing won't do it, sadly.

Next up on the auction block...slightly flood damaged...

I guess, the car underwent some flash floods and the guy needed to powerwash the stinking interior.

You guys are looking at this all wrong.

It's not that he's hosing out his car in a completely foolish and wasteful fashion. It's clear that he is actually in the act of seasoning his new humidor in preparation for the 12,000 newly pressed Cuban cigars coming in from Canada this afternoon.

C'mon. Get with the program. And give a cigar afficionado a break.

I can tell none of you guys are dairymen. They know a cow has never dissolved in water. The leather will be just fine. How do you suppose they clean fine rugs when they roll them up and take them away? They wash them with soap and water. A little vacuum and the carpet will be fresh and nice.

As long as he didn't get water into the electronics and has a big pile of towels and a hair dryer, it probably isn't any worse than those who spray chemicals (Armor All) all over their hides... it's just water.

Now, what required such a through cleaning? Puke, Dead body, Dog, skunk...

I love my power washer... but it never gets near my AMG.

THE REASON WHY THAT MAN WAS POWERWASHING HIS NEW BENZ

Yes, I like so many of you thought he was derranged but after about a min of watching the video it hit me. He is probably engaging in some form of fraud and will report the vehicle as a "flood loss" and will obviously get money out of it. That is the best possible reason why he would soak the entire interior of his car. If you guys have any better possible explanations I would love to hear them but I believe that mine is the most logical. Let me know what you guys think.

I've seen it before !!!

I watched a crew "cleaning" used car interiors with a regular hose & soap !!!

I guess they punched holes in the floor, to drain the water out...

Buyer beware !!!

How do you know is was a "brand new Mercedes"? The fact that you have this video shows a desire to blow up the Forum.
It is a known fact that Mercedes dealers declare a car a total loss if it had water on the floor, since the wire loom get's shorted out.
I bet you, this car was one of them before it was power washed to create a stir. Why would someone create a video otherwise??
