So, they brought a white one and they guy, like every sales guy goes, clean CarFax, 1 owner... I do a quick walk around, feel the paint, and I noticed something not Kosher... Popped the hood, awesome, for SURE painted...
I told the guy, and of course, he says, CarFax CarFax!... (They REALLY love that dumb *** thing...)
I showed him the paint overspray on the door jamb and overspray on the battery, and asked "Oh, so this is the way cars are from the factory?" He thought I was retarded and brought the sales manager... Sales manager said, yep, it's been painted and got a little pissed that they bought a damaged car...

Next Maxima they brought... Guy says it's an SV (for non-Maxima people, S is BASE, SV is leather, foglights, turn signals on the mirrors, and home link?)
He brings it out, gunmetal and I said "Oh, so dealer added leather?"
"Oh no, this is factory"...
"Um... No... This is a base S with added leather, see the lack of foglights and mirror signals?"
"This is a special 2010 model, they offered just leather"
So since the manager was still hanging around waiting for me to see the second one. I asked if I could get a word with him privately. Brought him over to the car, showed him something and said... "Look your boy doesn't know a goddamn thing about these cars. I really doubt Nissan fúcked up the stitching" (the center console lid and the door panels are "leather" no matter what trim package you get, and the stitching is like browny-orange... The stitching on the seats was white... LOL!!!)
I also said, "by the way... Front bumper has been repainted, the rubber seal between the hood and the bumper is painted over"

He asked if I wanted a job or could teach their sales team how to ID their cars

LOLLLLL I'm @ work just laughing at this hahahaha

Last year when I was looking for my Z I saw a nice metallic silver base at a local dealership, surrounded by about 25 new and used Maximas. Stopped by to take a peak and a salesman came walking out...

"If you're going to do a lot of modding anyway, just go with the Maxima, you'll get the same power AND luxury."

a dealer actually said that to you??? Like in seriousness? Or did you ask a stupid question and you got a stupid reply? LOL

kenchan · 02-27-2013, 02:31 PM

b1adesofcha0s · 02-27-2013, 02:32 PM

Salesman told me I could order a non-40th 370Z in the 40th Quartz color. I told him you couldn't, but he said they could definitely do it. I went ahead and told him to get me one......about 15 mins later he comes back and says they can't do it.

FPenvy · 02-27-2013, 02:32 PM

i taught the guys at the local dealership how to use launch control on the 2013 GTR they had.....

the dealership owner also wanted to give me a job after i rattled off everything about the GTR and then the 370 while his salesmen were flipping through brochures frantically trying to keep up

When I first started looking around, my request was simple. Base Coupe SP model. They have me drive a pearl white touring sport convertible. Then asked me what it would take for me to take that car home... Not happening. We go inside, there is a Nismo. "You want to try this one?" Face palm... Fast forward a year, same dealership, new salesman. Same request. Pearl white touring SP... right next to it was a base sport in black. We get back from the test drive and I say, write me up for that black one.
