I've had 2 experiences with scion dealer, one was cool and let me test drive the car by myself. I went in to the dealer to look at the FRS when it was new and they only had automatics and the salesman said "u can take it for a test drive if you want, just leave the keys with the lady at the front desk when you come back" because they were almost closing. No pressure to buy there or anything.
Second time was a different dealer the salesman was a typical bad frs salesman. He didn't know much about the car, told me how tricky the clutch was and be careful. I dont really remember the test drive because he didn't let me push it and only took me on a highway during rush hour. After the test drive I was late to get home so I was in a hurry, the guy kept trying to show me videos of a stock frs drifting and was like look what it can do stock!! It wasn't a terrible experience but it was clear he was desperate for a sale, even though I stated I was there only to look
But I test drove a BRZ last weekend with my dad, the salesman was in the back seat lol. He knew a surprising amount about the car despite it being at a BMW dealer. We got back to the dealer and I thanked him and told him I have a couple more cars to look at, he brought the sales manager over to talk to me. And this was a younger guy but he had absolutely no idea what he was talking about. Told me "if youre looking for a car to drive year round this one would be best because of the AWD". Even if this car was AWD the ground clearance would be a limiting factor..but they gave me an info sheet for the car and in bold letters at top it said "BRZ RWD COUPE". I saw the original salesman awkwardly look at the manager and gave him a "you just fucked up my sale look..."
