I got one i would love to add to this thread. I was shopping around for a 370z a couple of years ago to trade for my G35. I spent the whole afternoon going dealer to dealer looking for what I wanted. I finally found a black nismo in Sylacauga, AL. We talked about the car and finances for a little bit and I was about to take it for a test drive. As I'm standing there waiting for them to find the keys, one of the employees is standing there telling me about some of his old sports cars and starts to talk about the Z. He tells me that the Z had adjustable sport sususpension that adjust with the push of a button (the SRM button). I was know fool but I wanted to play along. I said "oh really? what exactly does it do?" He goes on to tell me that when you turn it on and off, it tightens/loosens the springs. After I hear enough stupidity from this guy I finally had to ruin it for him that the little "s-mode" button has nothing to do with suspension haha his face got real red when I told him to ride with me and showed him what it really did. Just goes to show that some salesmen haven't the slightest clue about the vehicles on their lot haha

Here's one of many
When I was half looking to find a Z I was with a friend of mine who was going to replace her '99 Maxima with either a new one or an Altima with the 6.
As we walked onto the lot a salesperson came up, flipped her info pad open and asked for my phone number and name before we even got past hello. My friend was the one we were there shopping for, not me, but I figured I WAS looking so I thought no harm in that. I explained that I was interested in a 370 if she could find me the right one. I stipulated that it had to be a coupe, A7 and not black. A couple of weekends later we were back again and the dealer had a 2015 MB M6 vert being prepped in the wash bay. Not two days later I get a call, you guessed it, she had a new black convertible I might be interested in. WTF? Why would you even waste your breath, and my time. I didn't even return the call, but you can guess how that would've gone. My friend had originally bought her Maxima from that dealership in 2000 and wanted to buy from them again since she'd had every service done there and had relationship with them. They had such limited inventory and screwed around so much she bought elsewhere. I also bought my Z elsewhere (that's another story) and also bought a new Murano for my kid, also elsewhere. Three sales lost due to the utter incompetence of two salespersons. 104 |
Soo glad this is a thread! When I had my csc fixed under warranty the dealer moved my shifter block off plate so it slid past 5th/6th making it an effort to find those gears. I told the tech and he said " its a short ratio gear box, thats just how it is" .... I really wish I was lying
Oh also asked the dealer to change my tranny fluid to redline which I supplied while in for the csc. they told me it would make my synchros stick. I was waiting for them to say motul 600 was bad clutch fluid next |

Not a nissan dealer but I was looking at a roush in a ford showroom when I dropped my work truck off. I was curious and looking at the stock rear tire size on a stage 2 and a salesman goes "thats just a body kit you know". Literally made me angry lol |
waiting for the parts department to get me my rotors i hear this from the service rep
'welcome to honda, how can i help you?' i looked at her thinking you realize we're in a nissan dealership right? she does it again right as i leave. she probably lost her job. oh and they messed up my damn order and gave me 2 sets of rears. idiots... atleast they exchanged it for the fronts without too much hassle. oh and when i was car shopping the sales rep kept trying to convince me the red was super rare so it merits a premium on the sale price. they car sat on the lot for a long time... they even called me a few months later after i got my current Z |

Not Nissan dealer but a Scion one awhile back. I parked right in front of the entrance to their showroom in my Z, as I had to visit a client who worked in their back office.
A sales guy immediately approaches me and asks if I'm planning on trading my Z in for the new FRS. I reply "no thanks, I'm here to see Steve". He then says, "you know that you can install a turbocharger on the FRS and it will be faster than your Z". A little put off by his comment, I look him straight in the eye and reply, "and you know that I could install a turbocharger on the Z and then it will be faster than your FRS with a turbo". He hesitates for a second and then replies, I see if Steve's available. |
Salesmen know d*ck.:rolleyes:
Me: "What happened to the GT-R that used to be in the showroom?" Salesman, pointing into the customer lot at my 370 nismo: "That's it out there." Me, pointing my key fob and making the lights flash: "No, it isn't." |
