Default Dealers Suck.... has this happened to you?

I went to go test drive a Acura RSX-S 6spd and a BMW 330xi 5spd this morning. The strange thing is that both of those cars were deliveries for customers to pick up and purchase that same day! In other words (in case i'm not making myself clear) I was driving other people's cars that they are scheduled to buy as NEW!

So, if you ever buy a new car, make it crystal clear to your salesperson that no-one except dealer employees are to drive your car!

No joke.

Default there was a WRX i test drove that my friend and the dealer took out later....

and it had like 20 miles on it and they beat the **** out of it. Yeah it's a WRX, but this can happen to any car.

My father's brother who's not around any more bought an austin healey and managed to be the person taking the car off the boat in port so that he was the first person to ever drive it. Sounds good to me

Default The Honda dealer pulled the same thing on me.

Don't moan, I got kids, needed the mini-van. Got one with leather, DVD, 240hp V-tec, Drives friggin' great. Anyway, there is a LONG wait list for these, and the day mine was supposed to arrive, the dealer said it was going to be dealer said it was going to be delayed in receiving, well i "just happened" to drive by the dealer, and there it was sitting in the detail area, completly ready. Lets see, its thursday, weekend traffic the only Odyesse like it in town, hmmmm..
