I went in there and had a terrible experience from their sales staff as well as sales manager. The best way I can describe this guy's attitude is Bernie Mac. They wouldn't let me test drive the car, and I had to push for him to get the keys so I could sit in one. At the time I hadn't seen one in person. I was told that they don't allow test drives unless you're "pretty much ready to buy." The sales guy actually took off for a while when we were in his office to go help another customer. I asked about leasing options and they told me how I could get one for $600/mo, the "top-of-the-line model, the one for $29,500." I wanted to sit down and crunch some numbers so I could estimate a payment and they refused.
Things to keep in mind.. I'm 27, decently dressed, clean shaven, and I don't wear a backwards hat everywhere I go. We showed up in my GF's '07 G35 Coupe. I walked in pre-approved for a $50k loan and told them that.
I went to Grubbs and they let me test drive a PW T/S/N 6MT right off the bat. The sales guy got with financing guy and they were able to print me out something that showed me what I'd be looking at with 3 different down payments as well as some different APRs. I found out as I was leaving that they actually stayed 30-45mins after closing to help me with all of this.
Both dealerships were told that I was ready to buy in roughly 30 days (not same day) and I was pre-approved for the loan.
