The Salesman or Order Taker all the same tells me I have to take a test drive in the rain or his boss wont do a deal. Told him no need for drive as I couldnt drive it like I wanted to in the rain.
End of story no deal offered.
I would have played bumper cars with it in their parking lot and walked away.

I did not do a test drive at all. The salesman did ask me if I ever drove a Corvette before. I told him that I've owned 5 other Vettes, and still have an '88 at home.
