When a young man in an $800,000 car strikes up conversation with young women the hidden-camera social experiment revealed what many have assumed for the ages. Several of the women had no hesitation in engaging in conversation with the total stranger driving an expensive car.
Many of the women, whose faces were blurred to protect their identity, were willing to get in the luxurious car with a complete stranger and seemingly unafraid of any danger.

Tudou, a popular video-sharing site, conducted the social experiment to gauge how women would react to a man driving a car worth nearly $1 million.
In a brief time, the video of the social experiment with viral and gathered over four million hits in a matter of a few weeks.
Out of seven women that were approached by the man with the flashy car, five of them accepted his offer to get into the car without question.
Many observers of the video noted that this is a possible shift in Chinese culture that is embracing Western values that emphasize material wealth.
In an interview with NPR radio, high school student Wang Xinyu of Shanghai viewed the video that has created a buzz with her peers and has everyone talking.
"This experiment really says one thing: Nowadays, when girls see men driving luxury cars, they will fall for them," says Wang.
"They probably thought people driving luxury cars must be very rich and who knows, maybe they can be with them and be happy the rest of their lives. Most of these kinds of women place higher value on wealth, " Wang continues.
"To put it bluntly, they are willing to sell their youth for money."
