Just don't go to the one in Allston. When I called up long ago asking to test drive one, they said 'sure come on down'. I called afternoon day of, they said i'm good to go.

I get there and they say 'huh? we don't have one for test drive, we don't even have one in store. If you want you can come by tomorrow and see one that we just sold...' and I told them that I'd spoken to someone on the phone multiple times confirming a test drive - they feigned ignorance.

Then two sales reps start talking to me about how great the car is and how most people don't test drive it before ordering one: "this is a really great car, we've got orders coming in like crazy, people don't test drive before buying them - if you really wanted one you can order through us".

To which I replied "go F*CK yourselves and die in a fire, I'd never buy a new car without taking it for a drive first, your bullshit about having one then not having one to try out pisses me off" and walked out.

So instead I went to cityside subaru, they were great - they let me test the BRZ as well as a WRX - I ordered from them and never looked back.

TLDR: avoid allston's Scion - bunch of jerk offs - i hope one of their staff reads this.
