Someone who rides a Honda cub and works as an office boy is not in the immediate catergory for a new Merc. If I am going for a testdrive with no intention to buy; but have the capacity to buy; then, it is the primary job function of a sales rep to educate me about the finer things of the car, what I could and should expect from it; and encourage me to buy. I may not buy now, or in the next year or so, but I could buy based on the good rapport of the sales rep in the future. When I wanted to buy a BMW, I told myself that I would buy new. If I could not afford a new one; I would wait till I could. I got my new one 16years later, and am with my third new one in 7 years. Just because I testdrive the car (not Myvi style); does not mean I have to buy the car or will buy one. I may not like it.</blockquote>
