and the only thing I care about is that it looks like the S400 hybrid is out there in the wild. Scroll down a little bit and you can barely see it.

Seriously, why would you start to rev a S400? It's not like it's a S65 or SL65 or anything... it's a hybrid car with a V6 motor! What did he expect to get out of it???

...and not only that, it's not HIS car... but then again, we all know how "well" salesmen "take care" of cars on their lots. They're probably only a tiny bit "better" than valets at restaurants and hotels.
