Yay for Maryland public education!

 

true. Never have left it there, never will. I only let them wash the rims with a pressure washer. I have never hand washed my ride. Lots of touchless washes.

 

evos should come with keys like the bentley GT...comes with 2 sets of keys, 1 for the owner, 1 for valet. I believe it can only go like 1-2 miles until it shuts down and has no access to trunk or glove compartment. But instead of all these features, a valet Evo key should cut boost and/or revs. now if the dealer needs to test boost, give em ur normal key.

 

heh...I used to be a lot attendent when I was a teen. How the hell do you afford an evo on lot attendant pay? Anywhoo, what he said dont ever leave a fast car at the dealership to have work done on it...ever!

 

I'm a former Lot Attendant at an Infiniti dealer. I drove the new cars fast, but I never beat on them. I did beat on the cars that were to be sent to auction. I once jumped a Saab, and got all 4 wheels at least 2 feet off the ground. I think I bent one of the rims, as one of the tires was almost flat when I reached my destination. I also executed a PERFECT 180 with the e-brake while parking a Corolla. I had witnesses too, it was sweet!

Edit: I just remembered that I drove a WRX that we were doing a courtesy trade on, and I burnt the hell out of the clutch. I burnt it so badly that I had to drive it around the block a few extra times, so that it didn't smell like clutch when I returned.

 

i re typed it. fixed the type o's. (was a long thread and didnt feel like proof reading.)

Also i work 3 jobs to pay for a Evo.

1.Lot guy
2. Plumbing Apprentice
3.A cook for a sub shop

 

i usually don't mind leaving it at my local mitsu dealer. they've had the same 4-5 techs as far back as i've known and i'm sure they've beaten enough evo's that it's not a big thrill for them anymore like some of the techs that have never driven one. my dealer sells and services alot of evos.

 

thiers still the lot guys and the salesman.

 

it's not a very big dealer and doesn't have many salesman or lot guys. and the dealer owns the ralliart evo from the SEMA show, so they've probrably all drove that already. plus, i never leave it there for long, and usually wait in the waiting room. not all dealers have d***s working there, mostly just the larger ones.

 

thats what i tell them everytime i go to get serviced

 

 

If a dealership saw this they would void the warranty immediately. This is the same reason why I put my flash and mods back to stock when I take it to my dealership.

 

Give them your normal key and ride with them in the back seat w/camcorder documenting everything (being a backseat driver)

 

i always ride with people when they are driving my car. No questions asked!

 

That's why I hate leaving my car at the DS.

These guys have no respect for other people's property. That's why I do all the maintenance myself, no one there is touching my car unless something breaks.
