Really disappointed in american car dealers

Today my brother and I went around our area to most of the car dealers to check out some of the new cars that I am looking at. I was excited when the first chevy dealer I passes had 5 camaros parked fight out front. So My brother and I checked them out and went inside to find a salesmen so I could get a look inside and check out the interior. But the salesmen thought I was not a potential buyer or have no money and he would not even let me sit in the car if I was not a serious buyer. I was so taken back by this comment that I told him off and left disused, but I hope they are glad that they have lost a customer forever.

So next my journey took me to Ford to look at the mustang and some of the new 2010 models like the fusion. But it took 15 min to get a salesmen to talk to me and another 15 mins to fill out paper work for some sort of survey. So it took me 30 min just to get to sit in a new mustang, and the salesmen was hounding me the whole way. And I left ford with a bad taste in my mouth, but not nearly as bad as the chevy dealer.

Eventually i visited an acura, VW, and a Audi dealerships down the road and it was like night and day. At VW it was a hybrid dealership that sold VW and Hyndais. I was greeted at the door and the two cars i was looking at (genies coupe and the CC) were both unlocked in a matter of moments and i was allowed to examine both cars with my brother while the salesman gave us some space. And the same courtesy was extended at both acura and audi. I hope both american dealers learn fast that one hot car will not make you money, treating your costumers right does.
