WOW just got told off by a dealer

[LETSGOEERS06]

So i goto this dealership in NJ West Winsor Nissan I drive up to the lot in my car (which is not bad at all) and go up to this white z I saw after a little bit someone came out the guy asked if I liked the car and told me if I wanted to he would get the keys I said sure he says you need to go do some paper work to get in the car we dont let people take test drives. I told him I just wanted to open the door and hood since it was a 09 used with 3,000 miles on it. He said I need to have a parent or some payment first. I am 25 years old Drive a 2006 Grand Cherokee Overland with no stickers, wheels, or anything that makes me look like a kid. The manager walks out and says I am going to start your paperwork and then we can look in the car. I told him that I wont sign anything and was about to leave when he said come back with a parent or some money and you can sit in it.

I dont know if the guy was having a bad day but I just thought that was wierd is that a new thing dealers are doing to sell cars...

O and i was dressed nice not like a bum looking to drive a cool car and leave...

I get the "you're too young to afford anything" treatment everywhere I go. The dealerships, jewelry stores, everywhere. It's sad, really.

The only places that treat me right are tattoo shops, haha.

Don't worry, happened to me on wed. (well not exactly like yours) I did feel Like they were treating me like a kid.....you know what you should do, go buy a scratchoff, tell them "I have money with me" and after they sit you down and process your papers then ask for your card, pull out the scratch off and say "what ever I get on here is my down payment" that'll teach them......ooorrrr you could just key all their cars....VERY deep.....

lmao ng

sounds like something i would say...

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.

yea man i got the same thing when i went to buy my Z, given i am 18 years old and they didnt want to let me testdrive ( the manager did, the sales men didnt) so i said ok no problem, i left and went to get my check book came back and went to a different sales man, wrote him the check, shook hands with the manger and left with my brand new 09 touring

How does an 18 yro manage that considering your credit doesn't get establish for another 2 yrs? I'm confused...

Possibilities:
1. Rich parent (Very likely)
2. saved all his childhood money for a 370z (I doubt it)
3. Robbed a bank (Huge possibility)
4. A drug dealer (Maybe but I doubt a drug dealer would roll a 370z. Ova here drug dealer roll with huge tires with big shiny rims)

I think that's a pretty unfair assumption.

Some of the worst assumptions ever, imo...

Aren't you doing exactly what the sale reps were doing?
