I was just watching this on Jalopnik. Like most internet videos it was probably all staged with actors. Guy with the Prius was just going way too over the top with his gas mileage bit to be considered serious

It probably is staged, but it does have some truth to it. Oh and some of the Prius folks can be just like that!

EDIT: Quote from the author in the comments section of the Jalopnik article.

The video is staged — but everything in the video is 100% based off a real encounter I had. In some cases the real encounter was even more ridiculous; almost unbelievably so. I just don't have a camera guy following me around 24/7 to document it all.

I've never filled up next to another exotic. I don't live in a part of town where they're common, which is probably why I get such a reaction at the gas station.

That was halarious..... It really does happen. I get followed in to places with the Supra, and some of the other cars and they are not even exotics! I've had some people do some strange stuff to me, I can only imagine how bad it must get in a Ferrari.

this is so great.
I feel like every time I see an ISF, I see a famous movie-star...

Yeah that's me. I've been friends with Doug for a while. Completely staged. His instructions to me were: "Be as big a douchebag as possible... You owned an M3, right? Channel that." Rofl. I'm a little disappointed that my comments about the driver mod and Ferraris catching fire didn't make the cut.

Fantastic video. My favorite is the insecure ISF owner. Will be sharing this for sure.

Priceless. I witnessed something similar to happen to a guy with a 458 in LA. He wasn't that nice about it at all.
