Pay first, test drive later?

[Soya]

that's BS. they make it sound macam turbo car like dragster lidat. unless they not confident their car is tractable or hope ppl will fall for paper spec.

 

but frankly, i tink maybe the SE is juz plain terrified for his/her own life sitting as a helpless passenger.

[Wreckwrx]

Well, apparently those dudes that bought the STI back then didn't feel so....... But then again, I almost became one of those dudes

[Soya]

obviously no one is gonna say that, rite?

[Renegade]

Definitely better than this saleguy who tried to convince me the car he was selling was good by opening the bonnet and asking me to take a look at the engine.

 

Actually felt like asking him I was supposed to be looking for.

Trust me - quite a few people have done that

 

not talking abt those buy pre launch kinda cars but here is a car that is alreadi in the showrm.

 

i mean even if cao ahbeng wans to buy an STi they shld also let him test drive lor.

if u wan just restrict the route tats all.

And I was neither refering to pre-launch car not performance cars either

 

Ever heard someone something like "no-la. no need to test. your car already so well-known...." before ?

sheesh...that was the exact line MI used on me when i was looking at the rex b4 i bought the T4. duh.......

[Renegade]

So, I take it you didn't see anything interesting in there, did you ?

 

Maybe that's why lots of cars now come with those silly plastic engine covers - to attract the unsuspecting buyer and hope that he or she will go "Ooooo....it's so beautiful. I'll buy your car...."

 

Maybe I should start a new post on "Silliest things I've heard salespeople say...." or something like that....
