How young are you and what did you drive up in? I was 35 and drove up in a Mustang GT, they couldn't let me drive a Cobra fast enough... Find a different dealer or find a used one for sale and test drive that.

A lot of dealers are leary about letting people drive their Cobras because people beat on it, then say they'll think about it, and never return. Then someone else ends up with a car that's been beatin on.

A lot of dealerships are full of jerks. Don't get treated right? Don't spend your money there.

HA! I got mine at the Roseville auto mall also, and had the exact same experience!
The guy was a jerk, NOTHING pleased me more than to walk up to another salesmen when we got back from HIS test drive and asked if I could drive it. The other salesperson said yes, and when we got back I told the manager I would pay cash for the car only if the first salesperson that wouldn’t let me drive didn’t get commission. The Manager said no problem.
I paid 37,500.00 + T&L and loved driving off seeing the look in the dumb %*^& face.
