He had to run the numbers before I could even test drive. It's 2014; I know how much a frigging 428 costs.

So much for the art of selling. Just order takers at that dealership anyway.

Good thing it was just a pop in for me and I have a good dealer of my own.
Same thing happened to me when I went to T+C. Only difference was that I told them I was interested in buying, but not likely that day. I would need a week/month to think about it and compare it to other vehicles.

They didn't let me test drive until we ran some numbers as well, so I just took those numbers to one of the first dealers I visited and bought there. The first dealer knew plain and clear that I wasn't ready to buy that day, but they still gave me excellent service and offered a test drive before even going over any options, features, or numbers.
