"Test Drive" Gone Bad - Subaru Enthusiasts Car Club of the Sierras

KenpoKev · 2003-02-27, 03:05 PM

My friends down here in Douglas got writer's cramp a week or so back, when a certain salesman in a WRB WRX decided that he was qualifying for the WRC. Got bagged on Kingsbury grade (heading to the Lake) for reckless driving...meaning I think he spent the afternoon in jail awaiting his attorney. DUMB

He passed us as we were heading down the grade, going 70-80 (posted 45) just after passing someone on a double yellow. The car had the sale tags on the windshield no less. I'm guessing he's selling coax cable at Good Guys these days...

Drive smart.

At Lithia in town here, they had a 1998 Trans Am that someone traded in pumping 300 horses or somewhere along those lines. The salepeople kept "test-driving" it and pissed some people off by there driving.

A few people saw the window stickers and called the GM at lithia and complained. Now no one can test drive the car unless the client is seriously interested.
