Default Cars I should test drive?

I've been back in Maryland for more than two days now and have yet to test drive any cars. Things I have driven this year:

'03 Nissan 350Z Touring 6spd
'03 Nissan 350Z Track
'03 Honda S2000
'94 Mazda RX-7

I tried to drive an '00 BMW M Roadster at this Bimmer dealer but they wouldn't let me without running a credit check and well, I knew my credit wasn't going to be good enough.

I have at my disposal a '97 Mercedes E420 and an '01 Audi TT Roadster to roll up to the dealer in. For the Zs and the S2k I rolled up in the Audi and acted like I was some junior executive type looking for a more track-oriented car. For the FD since it was at a sleazy used car dealer I rolled up in the Benz and said my parents were buying me a birthday present.

According to autotrader.com there's a red '98 M3 at a dealer right nearby here, think I should go check it out? Oh and should I pretend to be the junior executive type or the spoiled rich kid type?

Those are the cars I've driven at some point in the year 2003, not since coming home.

Go junior executive for the M3 and take the TT...dress in a suit and go on a Tuesday around 12:30...roll up your sleves and leave your jacket in the car...you'll be all set! Tell them you are in a hurry and if you like the test drive you will be back later for a credit check.
