We looked around the showroom for 30 mins, and while a few salesmen poked their heads over the cubicles, not one person came and asked us if we needed help. These are $80k+ cars, not Ford Pintos!

Like I said, I didn't expect them to throw keys at us and have at it. But a "Can I help you with anything" is common courtesy.

On the flip side, I showed up to the Porsche showroom 2 blocks away in my E92 again, wearing a polo and shorts. They asked me which cars (plural) I'd like to test drive. Drove a brand new Boxster S and a 911 C4S with a sticker price of $130k.
Speaking of Porsdhe -- the last Porshe I had they just gave me and the wife keys and said come back when we had a good feel for it. I haven't been to a dealership where someone didn't have to drive with me in many years.
