Most Stupid Thing Heard From a Nissan Dealer

Read T · 08-07-2014, 02:45 PM

Another incident when my brother was looking to buy an S14 (he ended up getting a mint '98)

Brother On phone to dealer "just to make sure, it's advertised as a manual 5 speed is that correct?"

Dealer "Let me go look"

....5 minutes go by....

Dealer "Yep, 5 speed manual"

Brother drives 3 hours to go look at and hopefully puchase car

Dealer "here it is!"

Brother "That's a 4 speed automatic"

Drives 3 hours back home

His car now:

"Lets sit down and work out a great deal for you."

Also, when buying my Z, my dad was with at one dealer. Sales guy calls me a few days later, "you need to come buy this now, your dad will agree it is a good deal." My father heard that and started laughing while I was on the phone.
