Buying one last car before a SCAMMER goes down! 

Need a meme of Doug walking away from a building as it explodes, action movie style, putting on the Dirty Stig sombrero. Doug car story is best car story!

You see a Porsche and the word "scam" in the thumbnail, you know it's a Doug video! 😂

Don't you love when someone goes, "I don't like drama" and then proceeds to create more drama than anyone else you've ever known in your life? Same story here.

I got caught by one of these scams right before 2020. Apex Auto in Washington. I never got my $43,000 back but everyone there did go to jail for several years before they were all deported back to Russia. Damn shame as i saved for a long time to buy that car.

Who needs enemies when you have a friend like Doug.

Doug, as a believer, I'm always reminded of the same scripture when I heard your stories like this: Be shrewd as snakes and as innocent as doves. -Matthew 10:16

I'm not a Porsche guy, but this really makes me want to deal with Doug. He understands integrity.

Doug always has the best stories. Thanks Doug!

So apparently it’s not uncommon for dealerships to have multiple floor plan financing deals for different parts of their inventory. That means that it’s not a bad sign to have two floor plan auditors for different lenders doing their job, as long as the one auditor’s checklist doesn’t have any vehicles from the other auditor’s checklist lmao

Almost bought a C6 for 13k from these guys last month. Interesting. The listing was with no pictures but "ran perfect". The night before I drive down I get a text saying "Hey it actually needs a tune up and spark plugs." I didn't call after that.

1:00 oh, so. Hennessy?

I wonder if the owner of the 968 got his money…

CNC motors? Didn't Doug (DeMuro) review cars of them?

Ive had three floor plan companies before. Its not unheard of.

Doug is the type of guy who I would run into a shop or car show and be super cool to talk to and hangout with. But he would never be my friend.

I used to live in Clarksville TN. This dealer might be a scammer but Gary Mathews is well known to be the same or worse

I’ve purchased from Direct Auto in TN before. It was a 2014 Jetta TDI Sportwagen. It was a cash transaction, about four years back, with no trade-in. It took about 7 weeks to get the plates, but that was the only hiccup. Great car, great price. Perhaps I was lucky.

Ah Got scammed in State of Florida and the State did nothing and Manheim still lets this guy use another dealers license to pass as a dealer. What he did was sell a car and boat for me through the auctions. Then sold me a boat and a car he never owned, just pulled vin and Hull numbers off of ads from dealers and pocketed the money. Police did nothing, said it was Civil when it is not. He also sold a salvage boat on eBay to guy in California as if it was a nice running boat. Got judgement against him and still nothing. Stephen Mazzo is the turds name.

I saw this on Netflix. Guys a punk. Turned on everyone. Can’t wait until his partner gets out of prison to tell his side of the scam

1:50 I thought Doug was going to do a throw back and say “it’ll be your own asphalt”. 😄

I almost bought a 928 for 1800$ that ran and drove good no real damage but that was 6 years ago! What a time to be alive

I love roasting catfish scammers on instagram.

Doug has the best stories ever

That’s a good looking 968!

I've done several deals with him. I got through unscathed. He had a title to my 911 for 8 months. But that was my decision because I wanted to use it for a possible trade. Luckily I got the title with no leans on it!

Doug is the best 🤣🤣🤣

He was on fire and waiting on someone to piss

It’s often when a business starts going “south” with cash flow (or lack thereof) that scamming starts which leads to frauds. Bankruptcy allows for businesses to fail because misjudgments in the market or sh!t happens (e.g., COVID). A realistic ownership considers Chapter 11 when there is something to pay for filing to get time to restructure or Chapter 7 if FUBAR. Ego driven owners start scamming then go deep into fraud involving USPS mail or interstate wire communications (Federal Court). Did someone mention COVID PPP loans? Sounds like trouble if mis-spent.

FYI: In Ohio, Floor plans place E-liens on used car titles, which is publicly accessible info

What a rat move, to tell on him to the floorplan guy! 😮

You really screwed Charles lol

Ha I live in Clarksville Tennessee pretty sure he was black listed for fort Campbell

Doug stories are the best

So wild that this happened in my hometown.

You gave him so escape money lol

Oh a Doug story! This should be good!

Sounds like he is an automotive version of Call Saul..

Hey Doug- Saw you at Amelia Island off in the distance at the Ritz while the bidding was going on

I like Doug and his stories. Thanks VinWiki.

I traveled from Chattanooga to their dealership and immediately felt like something was fishy and left after a few minutes 😮 thank god I did😊

Love Doug stories!

Scammers have balls, just like dealers and their litany of scams.

There's somethimg wong with credit system if a floorplan lender can have an interest in car, but there's no lien on record, so that someone else can be on the hook for the loan after the fact. No lien should mean no claim to the vehicle, that's what they're for.

New Story from the Mexican Stig?! I'm in!

People got scammed, and were still giving him 4.2/5.0 stars!? Odd.

I would love to see Steve Lehto his synopsis on this one too. Once it was in the laws hands etc.

Scottsdale lotus 2001 that was one crazy story

I'm not supporting or condoning scammers in any way but I can understand the mentality. If they are going to break the law then they might as well go balls out

With Judis Friends like Doug who needs auditors.

doug is THE MAN

Love his T-shirt, keep your woman but switch cars 😎

Thanks so much for posting this. He has screwed a friend of mine out of $800,000(ish) & he is still owed that. The Porsche, car & dealer community needs to know about this guy.

Why is it that every single story this creep tells is negative ? What's the point of this story ? He didn't get ripped off so who's he to say anything about how somebody else does business . If you ask me I'd say this fictional story teller is a oeri not to trust !!

I can attest to the fact of covid was great for dealerships 😂 we doubled our sales both years. Had 400+ cars on the lot every month and sold about half each month, if not all. Being one of only 2 Subaru dealerships definitely helped, especially since the other is a couple hundred miles away lol.

Just based off the thumbnail I almost bought like 3 separate cars from this dealer 😭

3 heavy hitters in a row so far this week? Who’s it going to be tomorrow? Will Rabbit make his return?

That boy at direct auto is most likely going to end up floating in the Cumberland river

I'm a simple man. I see a Porsche 968 in the thumbnail. I watch and press like.

Great vid but dealers can have multiple floor plans

Doug Ed or John Ficcara could read the phone book and we would still watch and listen.

I’ve got 3 floor plan companies 🤷‍♂️

Question- is there a motorcycle Vesion of Auto Tempest?

Doug = Ethical Guy Rabbit = more like the scammer

Did he ever screw you over

If people would put as much energy into just doing things legally and fairly it seems to me they would not have to work so very hard.

Doug, my man, what's with the jean shorts!?

YESS DOUG MY FAV VINWIKIER

1.99M subs... getting close! 🤠👍

what Grace that You can see the life-situation from every perspective, peace3ed

Great video

Doug is not just a Snitch in real life but has the face and personality to play one on TV

Smarmy Doug!

Doug. The worst vinwiki has to offer.

What if emulators launch after the new console have been launch.

Wow , and it’s going to get worse with this economy

"He's a Friend of mine"...then makes 30 min video bragging about stabbing said "Friend" in the back.

What is the car at 1:28? Is that a century?

I want a car with so much flake in the paint that it looks like a bass boat.

Tyler hoovie bigger brother ! Bring the bra to Barrett Jackson budy

If he is a friend, go back and try to help him out. TRUE FRIENDS stick around when you are down. Acquaintances run away. You, Doug, just proved what a friendship with you is truly worth. People make mistakes. Lift your brother up, don't kick him when he's down

It’s not a Doug story without the passive aggressive complaining/anger and at least a scammer somewhere

Surprised you don't know how floorplans work. They pay the full purchase price of the car when you buy it and hold the title as collateral. Not sure where this 80/20 up front comes from. Since they're based on the vehicle title as collateral, you can have as many floorplans as you can get. I've got AFC & Nextgear. You do have to curtail them occasionally and you get stroked on the interest & fees if you don't sell pretty fast though.

If he was not charged with any crimes then what it seems like to me is the guy was shopping Banks to see who possibly would give him the best deal. As far as the customers not getting titles in those few cases that could be simply a clerical issue between the dealer and finance companies. All the others info got from his friend who I assume is Charles competition is just trash talk as it wasn't credible. Doug, you have out done yourself here my friend, great display of your ignorance.

I just don't like Doug, don't know why

I'm not defending the actions of the dealer but I can understand them. If you own a business that is failing then you don't think as rationally as an outsider. The business owner is concerned with their livelihood and the responsibility they have to their family and employees and while the rational thing to an onlooker might be to file for bankruptcy the business owner is doing anything they can to survive. Obviously in this case it went too far but show me an owner of a failing business who won't do whatever they can to keep it an ongoing concern and I'll show you a flying pig. I'll also show you that same flying pig if you can show me a business founder who hasn't begged, borrowed or stolen in the early days to get the company off the ground. Even if you have the capital you need to start the business the first year or two are always spent with a complete disregard for the consequences of taking big risks. I dread to think how many rules and regulations I have skirted over the years to get my businesses going. That being said I have never done anything that is unethical or fraudulent but I';m fairly sure that a court of law could pick some holes in some of the things we have had to do to survive in the early days.
