i want a discount

you may be able to go to another dealer, or you may be able to ask the manager at the 1st dealership for an appointment to drive the car.

Something isn't right here. Either the salesman didn't think you were qualified to purchase the car either caused by age or something you said, like telling him you had no money to put down, or he really had another buyer there. If they were that busy, he could asked you to come back at a different time so that he could assist you.

Salesmen are paid by commission. Go ahead and complain to Toyota, but be sure you take your business elsewhere.

Damn straight you can complain. although am not sure what advantage u'r trying to get. you will most likely just get you are test run and the sales man may get fired.

By the way, I love Toyotas too.

Buy a Honda, they aren' t as impolite.

Don't think it'll help to complain but, someone higher up needs to be made aware of this salesman's actions. All car salesman/women have a higher up. Good luck

no why could they care?

A good salesperson should greeted you and tried to fit you in with his appointment or presented you to a salesperson that wasn't busy.

I could call the dealership and let the sale manager know your displeasure with the situation and I'm sure if you may be able to strike a deal, that you'll be pleased.

Your other choice is to go to a different dealer.

My manager could go ballistic if this happened at my store

Paul, not all salesman ar liars..

I could let the Sales Manager at the dealership know how you were treated. I am not sure that you could get any kind of discount, as dealerships rarely discount their prices, but you may use it as a bargaining tool. Let them know that you're most probably are going to go to another dealership to purchase the car since you recieved poor service, they may attempt and sweeten the deal.

In any way, it can not hurt to attempt right?

Um, why did not you ask then and there for someone else to take you on a test drive?

Not ALL car salespersons are idiots, but they are all liars for sure.
Sounds like he did not want to annoy with you for some reason.

Sure you may be able to complain, but instead I could hit him where it hurts, his wallet. If you do not purchase the car from him he'll not make any money. That gets their attention. I could complain to the manager of their dealership about his buyer service. The man should turned you over to another salesperson if he was too busy to assist you.

I'm sure there's more to the story. Besides, there a many better cars out there than a corolla

you must said something ridiculous like I want 13k otd, once a salesman hear that's just wasting his or her time, making an offer that he or she can not do remember they do not get paid by hr, only commission. im saying this because you have a comment "i want discount" discount doesnt mean a stupid offer you gave them

You do not need a discount, you need info. Is the Kelly Blue Book related to your area? If look at the dealer cost listed there for the car. Knowledge is power when making a deal on a car. Know exactly what you want before you go in. Look at their web sites nearly all dealers have one and see if they have Internet special pricing. If needed, use a COSTCO referral to find a dealer that will give you a lower price again, if that applies to where you're .

I bought my Corolla for $99 over dealer invoice. They get a check back from the maker so do not think they only made $99.
