Ford Mustang pranks unwitting fellas as they find out what real speed dating is

Ford Mustang joined forces with Team Detroit and production house The Work, to create a prank video that saw a selection of aspiring actors taken for a ride… literally.

According to AdWeek, the unsuspecting actors ‘believe they’re auditioning for a new dating show’ and after a casual meeting in a cafe for ‘chemistry checks’, they leave with Prestin Persson – a beautiful young actress who will be playing their ‘love interest’.

What follows is a hysterical montage, with each actor getting into Persson’s red Mustang GT, often offering to drive as she coyly admits that she’s not so good at ‘driving a stick’, and then proceeding to run through a checklist of their own attributes.

However, as Presson pulls into an abandoned car park to ‘turn around’, their confidence turns to fear as the date really speeds up…
