evo seats

I have really wide shoulders do you think that they will fit in the evo seats?

Just to give you an idea when I played football I had the biggest shoulder pads on the team.

I am prolly gonna go test drive one with my dad in a few weeks and we will see how it feels then. The only problem is gonna be when my dad drives it and end up buying one too because he likes it so much.

Ima put 10000 down on my car and try to pay it off in 2 years.

Well, for my case I'm very sure...The only way I would see them letting you test drive this car is getting a credit check down and basically finishing up the deal

I had everything ready to go with my MR and they still would not let me drive it. I have also bought two cars from there in the past too. I was told no one was going to drive it before it was sold. I am glad that no one had. You probably would be able to drive a used one though.

dude if you have that much for a down then they better let you drive one. besides its not like its a new car. MR i can understand though and keeping the miles down but there's bound to be a used one to abuse before you buy another.

It's really weird when you go for a test drive, 3 times I tried to get a test drive in a evo.

1st time, My dad was with me carying a 19k down payment and still wouldn't let me drive

2nt time Talked to a different salesman, asked if I was over 16, I said yes and he grabbed me the keys
(he kept telling me to take it really easy though, and we only drove maybe 2-3 miles). And I didn't even look that interested in buying one anytime soon.

A few weeks after the 2nd test drive i put down a $100 deposit for a evo 9

3rd time I just test drove a gto and a sti and both the pontiac and subaru dealer really let me beat on the cars (hell they even asked me too). So I went back to the mitsu dealer to compare the evo to them all. I told them basically that I already had a $100 deposit on the evo 9 at their dealership and I just want to see if the evo 9 really is the right car. They still questioned letting me drive, I told them I am financed already for it and have a 15k deposit waiting, and they and let me take it out, for a easy 5 mile drive.

It isn't impossible to get a test drive but it will take some work, try test driving a used one at a dealership, they probably will let you get on it a bit more.

Half of getting a test drive is how you act and what you look like. If you are dressed like a social degenerate and spouting out "1337" speak when you come in, you are going to get laughed right back out the door. If you are dressed nicely, act respectful, and are patient, most good salesmen will at least let you go for a spin even if they make you take it easy. If I was a car salesman and some punk kid showed up in his baggy jeans down to his ankles, big *** t-shirt that said something horribly rude on it, and some ghetto hat turned all sideways, I wouldn't let you test drive a used Geo Metro.

Thats strange all the dealerships around me will let you test drive anything. Well i didnt test drive mine.. but thats because I bought the one with the SSL package in the show room. But I test drove one outside that didt have the SSL package.
