Porsche Shooting Brake Hoax By TopGear.com America

[ Edit Post ]

You may or may not remember that Porsche shooting brake mule video that surfaced on TopGear.com in early July:

It was picked up by various websites, including Jalopnik. Well, turns out it was all a hoax as a sort of going away present from the TopGear.com American editorial staff before they got let go. Pretty damn good (but not perfect) hoax if you ask me.

You can read more about how they did it at the NY Times and Jalopnik.

Well done guys.
