The accident took place in a suburb of Chicago called Elmhurst in the US.
Police confirmed that an employee was taking two people on a test drive when he lost control of the car and ran right into the garage.
Speaking to the American television channel CBS, the homeowner, Eric Bowgren, said: “I was just sitting in my office working. I heard a loud crash (and the) corner of the house was blown out.
“So, I think somebody lost control of their car and drove into our house. About ten feet in front of me.”
The two passengers were rushed to Edward-Elmhurst Hospital with minor injuries.
The 18-year-old car dealership employee was arrested and charged with reckless driving, disobeying a traffic control device, improper lane use and driving too fast for the conditions.
The BMW was impounded by the police and is now under investigation.
The X6 the dealer was driving can get from 0-60mph in 5.1 seconds and has a top speed of 155mph.
People were quick to comment on the video.
One said: “Everyone thinks they are smart, though.”
Another said: “Of course, he did haha.”
