Sounds like the spoiled little rich kids dad was too busy letting his kid spend his money he forgot to teach him respect for other peoples property. I would be mad and would have a few words with the owner of the dealership!

Couldn't agree more. Get a grip. What happened to it?? Nothing!!! It's a car. A nice one but just a car. Not your mom. Not your daughter. A car.

id be pissed . You paid big $$$ no one should sit or touch it outside the dealer PDI the car and the guy who drove it off the truck !

When i get mine and if i end up having to do a courtesy deliver at a local dealer ( if i dont do a museum delivery or just go to ohio and get it.) they will be warned no one touches it but the above mentioned

The leaning on the car really gets me too. I won't even do that with my own car! (CTSV Coupe) I'm even picky about opening the doors.
I'll school anyone that gets in on how to open and close the doors with the flush handles.
Do not touch the paint in any way with anything! period.
I cringe at the NAIAS every year watching everyone paw the vehicles.

Lol. Its a fkn car. They didnt take your wife, mother, sister or daughter for a spin. Like I said, if the guy never posted it, you'd never know. How many cars have you purchased in your lifetime? Let me guess, those were never sat in or started before you did either? GMAFB.

I think some people are missing the point! the guy taking off the truck,that's is job! the tech doing the PDI that's is job! some guy off the street taking pics no problem! but sitting in someone else car starting it! sitting in and leaning on it! NOT COOL! i would be pissed to if that was my car! its called respect for other peoples property! just my 2 cents

I fully agree. It's just a car. It will get sat in and maybe even started once in a while.

Technically the dealer wasn't using good judgments by letting people sit in someone new car, doesn't matter if it's a Z06 or Honda Civic. I probably won't get mad if someone was sitting in my new car at the dealership, but i can understand if someone does get upset. What does **** me off is when i walk to my car in the parking lot and i have people leaning and taking pictures of my car for their enjoyment.....Then i have to ask them nicely to move the F@@@*k out so i can get into my own car.

Just because you don't care about your cars doesn't mean you should expect others to feel the same way.
