Default Most disgraceful act I have seen on a Z06 yesteray

I am going to keep this clean as much as possible here, but here it goes.

I decided to stop by this small dealership yesterday that have had a Z06 sitting on the lot for the past 3 months. Reason being is they think they still can get 15k over for a 06.

Anyway, I am standing there a few feet away admiring the car when this homeboy who works in the back somewhere comes in through the front door and decided he wanted to play the drums on everything in the showroom.

He bounces his knuckles off the rear quarter panel of the Z06 then over the convertible next to it then off of every other car in there. My eyes about popped out of my sockets. I turned around and looked at the sales manager and he didn't even raise an eyebrow about it.

I had to leave before I throw up..

Shows you the regard they hold for their customers. Thankfully, there are some outstanding dealers and outstanding personnel. I hope you aren't buying anything from this dealership.

Yeah, that's crazy. Body panels on a new car really can't handle some knuckles. That is a serious infraction. I'm surprised you didn't shoot him right there. Seriously, you guys need more to worry about.

Yeah you know the next thing you see is them spraying the cars down with water and rubbing a soaped up rag on them! Or imagine the horror of strapping one down on the top of a semi and hauling it up and down the interstate.

As long as he didn't have a ring on i'm sure it's ok. But the general disrespect is pretty foul. 90% of the employees at the dealership have no idea what a Z06 even is. I know the salesmen don't have a clue.

You guys are funny, this must be the humor section of the forum. The horror you seen, you will definately need some counseling after this tragedy.
