Couple minutes later "you know the payment on this would be around $1200 a month right?" I promptly told him I had the funds to cover it free and clear. That shut him up. It ticked me off him insinuating just because I was young I had no money. Mind you I'm not planning to buy new, looking for one around $25k, but it still left the dealer with a bad feeling. Who is he to judge me. Maybe my parents are millionaires and told me to go shopping. He'll never find out.

50k car...

1200 a month...

Go somewhere else!!

I didn't buy a Dodge Viper because as I was admiring the car and I told the dealer I wanted it, his reply was, "...and HOW do you plan to pay for it?"

I shouted back, "NICKELS!"

There's a salesman that works at Nissan in my city and he claims to know more about my car then I do simply because he works there. I interacted with him once when after I dropped off my car I spent the next 15 minutes waiting for my ride to pick me up exploring the lot looking at other Z's. He spotted me and tried to sell me on it, except after I asked why the description of the car had 18" wheels on a nismo he said it's because all Z's have 18" stock. But then I told him I have a Z and its right over in there (service department) now every time I see him he tries to prove himself to me or something.

I made them go get me a new salesman after the first one scoffed at me wanting a test drive. The same salesman scoffed at my (supposed) inability to pay for it.

The same salesman who didn't get my commission.

You'd think they treat you better pulling up in a TT Nismo...Me and my buddy pulled up to Lamborghini of Atlanta in sports cars. The salesman there took us very seriously and was very helpful. We were just looking honestly, but many people here have loaded parents so they know better than to just dismiss two 22 year olds because we were young. Made me respect that dealer a lot more because of how well we were treated. When I buy my Lambo (

) That's where I'm goin.

( Click to show/hide )

aha. The guy I bought my Z from told me he took me as a serious potential buyer because he has seen many young folks walk in and out with a car before.
I was 19 at the time, looked like 16 haha.

This one time when I went in for service, I was wearing my scrubs from work. They legitly tried to sell me a GTR..they were like it will be like 1800 a month etc LOL
I was like uhh maybe in 5 years.

Nissan Service Tech: Do you want the regular oil or, the expensive stuff? We have a special on tire rotation, if you're interested.

Oh, forgot this one from a female salesperson: Obviously, the convertible is faster because that top is very light and when you put it down it weighs nothing at all.

Justice97 · 12-09-2013, 01:41 PM

When I got to the dealer I told them I wanted a free cap and keychain.

2 weeks later I got a free cap and keychain with my plates.

No stupid lines no dumb questions, they were very cool from the 1st call to negotiate a negotiating start point on the price.

One dealer told me the auto 370Z has a CVT and you never hear the gears change. If you do, you did something wrong.
