A good example of this is pulling onto the lot of a Porsche dealership in, let's say, a Nissan Altima wearing jeans and a t-shirt vs pulling onto the lot in an M3 wearing khaki's and a buttoned shirt. I think the average sales person is going to draw some type of conclusion about buying intention of the customer.

Like it or not, but discrimination does exist in the auto sales industry.
As a former car salesman... This is accurate. You get paid commission. You gravitate to whoever seems like you'll get the commission from faster.

But for service... I'm not sure if that applies
