In a word... Disingenuous. I had originally gone to look at a Toyota Camry. I had initially talked to a sales rep on the phone about that car and he told me how great of a deal it was but wasn't sure as to the exact condition when I asked but said he would look into it.

I went in the next day to check it out in person. That particular employee apparently didn't come in to work but another rep wanted to help. He went to show me the car which apparently was quite beat up, and a different color FWIW than what the website showed.

The rep then went on to show me a 98 corolla that he also had. He told me the asking price was 3795 or something close. I told him that price was ridiculous and he then said that he was sure he could get 2000 for me as a counter. We test drove it and I had a few questions related to the car and I was assured it had been inspected by the mechanics there and everything worked. Upon further questioning the rep confessed that they hadn't done much of anything except fill some fluids up on it.

Long story short I gave him my offer and the rep said that he couldn't go lower than 2500. I told I wasn't even sure if I was interested at the price and the rep wouldn't take it to the manager as an offer so I left.

I get a call the next day saying they would go lower for me and I went in again to do another test drive. This was my first car purchase so I was quite weary of the whole thing. The rep told me that he couldn't afford more time with me and that he needed to sell other vehicles. Offended, I clearly stated I was not interested anymore and I would be buying elsewhere.

Since this encounter I have gotten 2 emails and 4 phone calls from them.

To conclude. I would not recommend this dealer. They were disingenuous, pushy, made me feel like I was unimportant, and that my needs didn't matter.
