Synopsis
Ian walks alone to Anthony's house and knocks on his front door. Anthony answers and tells Ian to wait around the side for the new car he intends to buy. Anthony drives the car out to show Ian. The lettering on the window doesn't spell out properly ("HER BALL"). Anthony says that some letters fell off and goes to get them. He then puts them on the car, and all the letters together spell out "THE FIREBALL". Anthony shows off two fireball stickers on the side of the car, claiming that they add 100 horsepower each to the car. Anthony also claims that the black paint on the wheels is a special substance forged in a volcano. Finally, he shows Ian a spoiler, which is really just a binder and two cups taped together. Anthony covers up the fact that none of the decorations actually make the car better by telling Ian that the performance speaks for itself, and that looks do not matter.
They get in the car to test it out. The drive starts out badly, as the car stalls a few times, which Anthony claims that it is a security measure to protect the car from thieves. They set off again, as the "spoiler" falls off the back of the car. As they're driving, Anthony points out to Ian an installed refrigerator in the back, which Ian notices is really just a cooler sitting on the seat. When Anthony exaggeratedly reacts to how fast they are moving, Ian points out that they're only going 25 mph. Anthony says that the speed is actually multiplied by ten, so they are going at least 200 mph. He then tells Ian to close his eyes to allow the car's computer to automatically drive for him. When he does, the car almost crashes into a nearby trash can, and Anthony secretly controls the car.
Anthony ends up swerving it around so much that Ian becomes uncertain of the "computer"'s capabilities. Anthony lets Ian resume driving after claiming that the computer can only handle so much, but when he starts driving again, Ian notices that the spoiler is missing. Anthony claims that the spoiler retracts itself into the trunk so the driver can get more speed when they are going fast.
They finally stop, and Anthony asks what Ian thinks of the car. Ian says that the car's really not that great, but he is delighted when he notices a cup holder. Ian is so impressed that, despite the car's faults, he decides to buy it, to Anthony's delight.

Trivia
- This is the first episode in which Ian and Anthony do not already know each other. Ian is a person who is buying a car from Anthony, and Anthony is the seller. This is the only episode to do this (other episodes have them as strangers but portray them as different characters).
- When the spoiler is shown from a certain angle, a Smosh symbol and logo are seen.
- The car in this video is actually owned by Ian. As of later videos, he drives a Subaru Impreza.
- The car's steering wheel has red construction paper "decals" taped to it, as do the manufacturer (Hyundai) badges and the cup holder at the end.
- Along with that, when Anthony shows Ian the spoiler, the license plate is not blurred like usual. Instead, it is covered by construction paper.
- This is the first Smosh video to have a bleep in it (in "Boxman", they only muted the swearing).
