Well guys, I decided Im going to buy my IS before the end of the year, so today I finally went to look at one. I called yesterday and set up an appointment to meet with the salesman, and drive one. So, this morning my girl and myself pile into the rented Grand Prix and head to the dealership. We get there, and I ask for the salesman I spoke with over the phone, only to find out that he didnt come in today. The receptionist told us someone would be with me shortly. Thrirty-five minutes later, we were still out on the lot, wondering aimlessly looking at the different models, no salesman in sight.
We decided that we were tired of waiting, and were about to leave when someone finally came over to "help" us. I knew right off this guy was a prick, but after wasting so much time already, I at least wanted to DRIVE one. After 10 minutes of him half ignoring us and half-a$$ answering my questions, I asked to drive one. He answered a curt "no" and told me that there was no demo available at the moment, and that the models on the lot were for people who "actually intend to buy one." I kid you not, those were his exact words!
I felt myself about to come unglued, and I think the G-F sensed it to, because she grabbed my hand, and pulled me to the car.
Im not going to name names, and I hope this was just an isolated incident. I know that Im young and all, but hell, the IS' main target is young folk such as myself. Ive heard Lex is very customer driven, so Im going to think positive, and just look again when I get back home to San Fran.
