Guess dealerships are not hurting that bad. I agree, talk with your money, by taking it elsewhere.
Edit: To make you feel better, the same thing happened to me when I wanted to test drive an Evo MR. I even had a guy from the same dealership (but Hyundai) say let him drive it, but the manager from Mitsubishi side comes running and and throws a hissey fit and says no. You see where I took my money.
