>The sales guys are still often idiots. Ugh. I was test driving a car I knew almost nothing about recently. I'm in the market for a fun weekend driver as a second car, and this one caught my eye on the dealer lot. I was looking at the car when a salesman approached me (I did not approach him, and I did not look at any other cars). I asked him to let me take it for a drive, and while we were driving I was asking him questions about it. "I don't know" was his only response. I'm sitting here in the drivers seat of a two-seater sports car doing 110mph down the highway and this guy is completely silent. "Does it have a turbo?" I don't know. "How big is the engine?" I don't know. "How many gears does it have?" I don't know. "How fast can I be going while putting the roof down?" Actually on this one his response was "let's give it a shot" and started lowering the roof at highway speeds. Luckily it apparently can handle that. Turns out the guy just started working there about two months prior and had never even heard of the car we were driving, he'd only sold Jeeps and pickup trucks and sedans up to that point. He just wanted the commission from selling a car he knew nothing about. I liked the car, but I will not buy from them.
