An armed carjacking in Orlando was foiled when the two suspects couldn't drive a stick shift, according to the victim.

The incident occurred outside the Orlando Regional Medical Center as the victim, Randolph Bean, was sitting in his 2002 Millennium Yellow Z06 Corvette around 11:20 pm on Sunday.

At the time, Bean said he was waiting for his wife to get off work and the car's ignition was off. He said he saw two men approaching in his rear view mirror as he waited.

"With the gun drawn and pointing at me," said Bean. "The guy finally yanked the door open and kind of half dragged me out, and demanded that I get on the ground."

Bean said while he was held at gunpoint, the second suspect hopped in the driver's seat hoping to make a getaway. However, his high-performance sports car wouldn't start.

"The guy started screaming at me, 'How do I start the car?,'" said Bean. "It's got a standard transmission, so you have to push in the clutch when you start it. I told the guy that."

But Bean said the man didn't understand how to and was only getting more enraged.

"Four times the guy screamed at me, cussed at me about 'How do I start the car?' and finally, the other fella goes 'It's a stick!,' said Bean.

Bean said at that point, the men took his keys, wallet and phone, and then ran off. He said he is now worried the thieves may come to his house and try again.

"Well, if they can't drive a stick, they might have a buddy that can," said Bean.

For now, Bean said his yellow Corvette is in hiding at an undisclosed location.

If police are unable to find these two men, Bean said he'll have to change the Corvette's locks, ignition and keys. He estimates it will cost as much as $800.

Bean describes both carjackers as black males between 17 and 25 years old. He said police dusted the Corvette for fingerprints, but as of Monday night, the two are still on the run.

Jesus H. Christ. A fucking man that can't drive a car with a standard transmission. Hmm. Oh, but he carries a gun around. Dumb motherfucker. (I do wish the owner of the Corvette had had one with him, and knew how to use it.)

GODDAMM IT. I loathe robbers and carjackers. And shoplifters for that matter.

As a matter of fact. I was on break about 15 years ago (isn't it weird what we remember) and it was summer. I was out in the parking lot smoking a cigarette and a military recruiter had left a window down on their car. (They're all in the mall) Here's this teenager walking up to the mall, but he sees the window down on this car, so he went over and was actually bent over with his whole torso inside the car looking around. I was up by the door, but I yelled " hey is that yours?" He said no, (I think I surprised him). I yelled, "Yeah no shit, well get the FUCK away from it then!". He told me to fuck off but he did leave it. But yeah, fucking thieves, man.

And that´s why you need a taser gun.

Door locks? Accelerator pedal? No need for any weapons if you've got half a clue.

Blacks don't know how to drive manual transmissions.

When he got in he was probably thinking, what the fuck is this 3rd pedal for?

I used to have a stick camaro. A couple dumb girls asked me to drive it, so I played along and told them if they could start it they could drive it. When they asked me how to start it, I told them to get the fuck out.
