Me (politely): I saw the red one when I pulled in, and it's a 350. I'd like to see the 370.
He points me to what appears to be a white base model with Bose but without Navi. The salesman admitted that he knew the asking price on the car but didn't know what options it had. After checking the car out thoroughly, I told him that I didn't want this particular Z but to call me if he could somehow locate what I wanted in next few months.
We made a little small talk (we know a few of the same people), then got down to business.
Told him that I don't NEED a car today, and I can wait for the 2010's if I have to. I wrote down my contact info, exactly what options and colors I wanted (including what invoice is on all that), and what I had for trade in. Wrote my bottom line price on there and told him if he could locate the above for price I had written and give me a decent trade in, he could sell me a car. Says he will have to do some research and see what he can find.
Would anyone have done any different?

I don't get it... You asked him to find the car you want. He's a car salesman - isn't that what he's supposed to do?
