Part 3/8:
Amidst planning the spectacle, the comedian also sought to acquire a highly coveted 1991-92 Lexus coupe, a fresh model with a long waitlist and selling over sticker price. To bypass the wait, he employed his storytelling prowess, spinning elaborate tales about working alongside stars like Denzel Washington, Steve Martin, and even involving a personal narrative about his bar mitzvah.
He called multiple Lexus dealerships, each time trying to persuade them of his star power, but was met with skepticism. The recurring question, “Who do you think you are?” greeted his calls. The humor and frustration built with each attempt, showing his persistence and penchant for elaborate storytelling—until he finally reached a dealership in Tustin.
