A Nissan dealer on test drives left a sour taste... I explained I wanted to do the same 40min loop in the Z as I previously did in a GR Supra. The dealer is about 30mins up the HWY from that run, so I asked about 1hr 45min all up test drive. Half of which would be transit out of suburbia to get decent road..the reply as follows suggests that my wife wouldn't be joining me for the test drive.
"I'm happy for xxx to take you out for 30-45 minutes from our dealership at a time that suits."
The problem with 45 mins test drive, 20mins ea way is stuck in traffic, 80km speed limits..really not the domain of 2 seater perf coupe.
I mean really? This dealer touted to me via sms their 'demo' had arrived with Z pics. If it was $200k Porsche I thought maybe too long test..then again a luxury brand likely drop you off a demo for the weekend esp if you're genuinely interested having paid deposit since Sep 2021 as I did for a Z.
By comparison, my local regional Toyota dealer around the corner from me arranged for a Toyota Australia demo Supra to be brought down from Brisbane for a day, and had my and wife had it for 1.5-2hrs for test drive.
