Most Stupid Thing Heard From a Nissan Dealer
 
While shopping around for my Z, I heard numerous stupid things said from salesman at Nissan dealers who you would think knew something about the Z. So I thought it would be fun start a thread to hear what other members heard that were idiotic statements made at a Nissan dealership. One of my favorites was when I was negotiating a deal for my CY 370Z. The 2 salesman I was sitting down with both asked me if I knew what was the name of the yellow. They said no one at the dealership knew but guessed it might be Canary or Lemon. I knew that it was Chicane Yellow. They were all so amazed I knew it. I'm amazed that nobody THERE knew it! Care to add your favorite?

We have a gorgeous 2008 370Z here, come check it out!

I made them go look for it, and tell me what options it had, hoping they'd figure it out that it wasn't a 370Z... They still said it was...

Me: Is this with or without the sport package?
Him: It isn't
Me: But it has the sport package wheels.
Him: All of them have the same wheels.
Me: (getting into the car) It also has SRM...
Him: Let me go ask my manager
Me: Can you also ask him to get me a new sales person.
Him: ......... :(
Me: Thanks.

While waiting for the finance guy, our salesperson was giving us brief descriptions of some of the packages we could buy and he mentioned that pre-paid oil changes would include tire rotations for free so that I could save money on tire rotations.

window etching is a great way to save on insurance.

Another one that was AWESOME...
(I had a Maxima that was totaled and it sat at the dealershit, and they tried to sell me a new one, which I didn't mind)

So, they brought a white one and they guy, like every sales guy goes, clean CarFax, 1 owner... I do a quick walk around, feel the paint, and I noticed something not Kosher... Popped the hood, awesome, for SURE painted...
I told the guy, and of course, he says, CarFax CarFax!... (They REALLY love that dumb *** thing...)
I showed him the paint overspray on the door jamb and overspray on the battery, and asked "Oh, so this is the way cars are from the factory?" He thought I was retarded and brought the sales manager... Sales manager said, yep, it's been painted and got a little pissed that they bought a damaged car...

Next Maxima they brought... Guy says it's an SV (for non-Maxima people, S is BASE, SV is leather, foglights, turn signals on the mirrors, and home link?)
He brings it out, gunmetal and I said "Oh, so dealer added leather?"
"Oh no, this is factory"...
"Um... No... This is a base S with added leather, see the lack of foglights and mirror signals?"
"This is a special 2010 model, they offered just leather"
So since the manager was still hanging around waiting for me to see the second one. I asked if I could get a word with him privately. Brought him over to the car, showed him something and said... "Look your boy doesn't know a goddamn thing about these cars. I really doubt Nissan fúcked up the stitching" (the center console lid and the door panels are "leather" no matter what trim package you get, and the stitching is like browny-orange... The stitching on the seats was white... LOL!!!)
I also said, "by the way... Front bumper has been repainted, the rubber seal between the hood and the bumper is painted over"

He asked if I wanted a job or could teach their sales team how to ID their cars

most dealers just waste my time.

except for this one honda dealer i found like an hr away from home. they were actually good. no bs'ing. straight talk, just like i prefer. in and out in no more than 2hrs tops including test drive to buy my dd cash.

Last year when I was looking for my Z I saw a nice metallic silver base at a local dealership, surrounded by about 25 new and used Maximas. Stopped by to take a peak and a salesman came walking out...

"If you're going to do a lot of modding anyway, just go with the Maxima, you'll get the same power AND luxury."
