A good salesman can sell you something that he knows nothing about and that what you didn't want.

For Z or any other low volume car isn't want the sales people are focused on. They could probably talk for hours about an altima or quest pointing out all the different features.

I don't expect the salesperson to know every detail about every car they sell. "I don't know but I'll find out real quick" is an acceptable answer. A bullsh!t answer, on the other hand, is totally unacceptable.

i disagree, they should know! its there job. hell when i sold kitchen appliances and home goods during my retail days i learned about every product we sold. we even had classes before work to learn the products.

if a guy cant learn the differences between 12 dif cars they suck.

Last October I stopped by a Nissan dealer to see if they had any Z's. There was one Roadster 7AT. I was looking for a Coupe 6MT, but the salesman had to push me towards it, so I said "Sure, lets go check it out."

So we open the doors and get in and fire it up to "listen to the engine." As it was cold the RPMs were high at about 1400 as it warmed up.

I asked him what the idle is and he looked at the tach and said "It idles at 1400 RPM."

I said "Thanks' and left him in the lot asking for my name and number.

Exactly. My room mate works for Toyota and he'll rattle off all the BS stuff that comes in the Camry and Corolla, and the IS/GS350 but can't tell you anything about the Lexus LFA
