They wanted to charge me $500 for pin stripes... I said hell no!
Then the salesman comes out and tells me "I'm sorry 370s dont get pin stripes".

Pulled in to the Nissan Service department. Service rep (the guys at the desk who check you in, not the actual mechanics) look at my nismo "Did you add that spoiler?"

You prolly expected to get a test drive and possibly buy the car @ an inexpensive price, while the dealer knows what his inventory is worth so he prolly could care less. |

I know this is for Nissan's but i gotta tell this story:
In 2000 I bought the then new Acura RSX type S, fully loaded it was a great car. When the salesman was telling me about the car he says "you know this car has a six speed" with this crazy look of anticipation. I say yyyeeesss, with sarcasm (like six speeds is a new invention) He tells me that with a six speed when on the highway if you wanna pass a slower car, you upshift instead of downshifting? My then girlfriend who I just taught how to drive a stick says " we should get another saleman" Lol |

The 370z really is part of a niche market. You should look at the Mustang at the Ford dealer next door it's faster.
Then the idiot tried to entice me with a used bright green Dodge Charger that was traded in.

Looking at a Z with the sports package brakes, I say oh this one has the upgraded brake, must be the sports package. The clown says, no, they all have these brakes.

With an attitude, a Sales Mgr from a big Nissan dealership right next to Universal City tells me......"The car you want is on the dock in Long Beach. I'll have to pay a guy to pick it up. Do you want it?"
This is after I spent a day driving down from where I live, test drove what's on the lot, and sat there waiting for him. How the hell did having to pay a guy to pick up a darn car from the dock became my problem. I walked out and bought from a big Nissan dealership from Fontana with a known race team Way further but service was top notch.

I bought my CY Z out of state and the day after I got it home I went to the local Nissan dealer and as soon as I pull up 3 salesmen come out and ask me if I did a custom color on the car. I said "no that's the stock color" and one of the salesmen said to me "No it's not! I've worked for Nissan for 10 years and have never seen any 370z in that color! You had to have painted it!"
Me: ...... -_- *gets back in car and drives away*

I was at Town North Nissan a couple of weeks ago after they said they couldn't install aftermarket fenders on a Nismo of a local forum member because the door needed to be removed I even verified in the service manual that the base is identical to Nismo when it comes to the front fenders, and when I told them only the bumper, side skirts, and fender protector have to be removed, they still insisted the door has to come off on a Nismo.
In the picture they sent the owner during the install when they said the door had to come off, the car had the wheel off and the side skirts still on I said if they can't figure this $hit out, you probably don't want them working on your car.
