Keep them on their toes! I remember back to the mid-80's when I was just about to finish college and was looking at new cars. I was in a Chrysler dealer looking at the Daytonas and just for kicks asked the sales guy to tell me what a turbo did. I don't remember exactly what he said but it was totally wrong. I just looked at him and said "that was so far off I would be embarassed to even say that". He just stared back at me.
Another poster was right...most shoppers are looking at Volvo's and BMW's as well, as I did. Both of the salesguys at those dealers really knew their stuff, and recognized that I knew mine as well. The Saab salesguy, on the other hand, didn't have a clue. I bought my 9-5 SW because of my own research. No wonder Saab has trouble appealing to the masses, their sales team can't even articulate the features and benefits of the cars.
