Sometimes dealerships bring it on themselves - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

I've seen lack of product knowledge demonstrated at most dealerships of every brand imaginable but this ranks near the top of the most blatant idiocracy ever.

Seen at my local Subaru dealership today:

This is the same dealership where I test drove a 2015 WRX last February, left all of my information so the salesman could call me when the next STI arrived estimated at two weeks max, but never heard back.

Wow. Just wow.

Which dealership is that?

I'd go in there and demand an AWD BRZ lol.

Btw my father is building an RV-7.

take it out for a month or so and then demand your money back because you found out it wasn't AWD. :P

Gresham Subaru, an exclusive franchise no less. I could almost understand if they were dualed with a what-the-hell-it's-a-car Chevy franchise or something.

The sign is actually upside down and is supposed to remind you to register the car!

That's crazy lol.

When I bought my car, I definitely knew more than the guy selling me the car. I think this is the case with many people who bought this car.

I bought my BRZ at a Hyundai/Subaru dealership... An interesting mix of brands to carry. Thankfully I just went in and bought the car same day and didn't have to answer THEIR questions about the car it was so new to them.

Also I think they meant to put on "LAWD" as in "OH LAWD!" but they didn't have room to put the L on it.
