Wow, did Ralph Macchio really drive a car? That’s crazy! I mean, I know he was the star of The Karate Kid and all, but driving a car? Who knew! Anyway, it turns out that yes, he did indeed get behind the wheel. Apparently he drove a classic Ford Mustang in the movie - how cool is that? Talk about living the dream!
Did Ralph Macchio Keep The Car? [Solved]
