Help with a R32 GT-R Test Drive

[lwells]

Hi All,

My father is looking at getting an R32 GT-R but is having all sorts of problems actually finding somewhere to have a drive in one -- every dealer has refused unless he basically agrees to buy the car *before* purchasing. Apparently this is the way the grey market dealers work

Anyway, doesn't anyone know somewhere that allows test drives in the Sydney region ? He is serious about purchasing, but is not going to purchase something without at least driving it first

Cheers,

Lucien.

Your father had better get used to it. Finding a dealer or anyone prepared to let you test drive a GTR will be very hard - considering the numbers of recent car jackings and thefts its not surprising.

I can understand their concern, but they are not justified in regards to my father He could just try and ring someone out of the tradingpost, but he feels it would be unfair to try and waste their time just for a test drive...

Its all a bit silly.. at the end of the day he is happy to leave a deposit if need be, and yet still some dealerships won't let him even sit in the silly things.

Blitz hit it on the head, with the amount of car jackings and thefts at the moment, its no suprise nowhere will let you test drive one.

A deposit wont cover the value of a GTR if your dad decided to make off with it (which im not saying he would, but you need to see this from the dealers perspective).

But leaving his car, a copy of his license, and a deposit is surely enough.. plus having a dealer in the car... I mean what else can one offer to snag a test drive?
