Was at work today, and saw a nice white Z pull in for gas. When i asked the guy what year it was assuming he was the owner, he held up a work order sheet and said it was a customer's car 2003 white Z with some rims and RED calipers APR i think it said.

Well when the guy went for his 20th road test around the block; i just wanna inform the owner that it's been road tested and w/e the shops name is (rather not say) approved! meaning he was beating it up!

Just a heads up!!!

 

LMAO. good lookin' out? LOL... that is fuddup.

 

i try!

 

That's why I like to do my own work. I hate even leaving it somewhere for an Oil Change.

 

It reminds me of the time when I went into the Lancaster MA Toyota Dealership when they had a used 350Z that I was looking to test drive and purchase. The sales rep said that he was going to drive it out of the lot and then pull over down the road and then I could drive it. He took off the traction control and got the car sideways pulling out of the dealership. I would never buy a car from there. I can bet that most of the sales reps beat on the cars.

My other buddy bought a used 04 or 05 RSX and we were going into the dealership and few of the sales people came up to him and told him that his car is fast. He was pissed because the way they said it to him he knew that it has been going out for test drives by the sales and techs.

 

My buddy has his RX being worked on at a shop in L.I. NY and as of last week the guy performing the work said he was street tuning... Keyword = Last week! as of now he hasn't gotten a call to come get it this weeknd meaning more street tuning?

 

street tuning...means he's riding around making sure the tune is ok!!

 

lol, dealership racers FTL

 

A girl at my girlfriends class took her new Scion TC in to the local VW/Toyota/Scion dealership.
The car was in for its first scheduled oil change and tire rotation (possibly something they offered with the sale of the car) ... anyways..... The girl gets a call during class that a tech took her car for a "routine test drive" following the tire rotation ... (yeah right!) ..and flipped the thing into a ditch completely totalling it! lol

 

LMAO. that is f'ed up.

 

lol lmfao

 

Techs are supposed to test drive after rotations to check for tire noises and any crazy pulls... may be it had a really bad pull

 

lol yeah, I meant I guess their "routine test drive" includes whipping around corners at high speeds

 

They always test drive, but beating on something? That's f'ed. I always check my mileage before I hand the keys over, my gas meter, and have the service manager watch. That or I have my dealership do it.

 

Gee, did it look like this?

 

looked exactly like that!!!

thats the only time i've ever seen your car man. you from around town? I usually see a white one with some kid who always revs at me when passing em. here's mine.

 

I'm about 20 min north...I work in No Bruns...

The guy who was "testing" the car...from Goodyear, right?

 

yeah good year guy! came and got gas...musta loved the ride of the Z..ya know??

but deff good looking car man. i own the garage and BP off Georges...

 

Yeah, I knew they went to BP cuz he gave me the receipt. I dropped the car off with almost no gas, so I gave him 10 bucks to get gas for the test drive. I have a little noise when I turn left at higher speeds, so the test drive may have been legit or it may have been for fun...I'm not sure if I should say anything to the guy.

 

hmmm well next time u bring it if it doesn't require a test drive give me the heads up and i'll keep a look out... so dont say nothing now.
