This is exactly what I thought after seeing the video. Both the guy with the sprayer and the camera were laughing/giggling. That gave me the impression that they were ruining someones car.

The license plate of the car is Italian, but the language spoken clearly wasn't Italian.

Does anyone think this car was possibly stolen and that these guys are the thugs who all of a sudden decided to ruin the car?

I remember some Chinese businessman paid some guys to destroy his brand new Lambo, because the dealer refused to fix the car. He even made it official by inviting press to witness it all. This could be something similar. Whatever the reason is, this is not how you treat a brand new car give it to poor people, they'll thank you

I saw the new CLS on the road for the first time this past weekend, and its just freaking stunning. I didn't care at all for the last gen model, but this one is just gorgeous.

There has to be malicious intent there, no one could be that stupid.
