Suppose a dirty, almost homeless-looking gent walks in..and wants to check out an expensive car? Do you waste your time?
 
When I was shopping for a Highlander would go to the dealership on days when I was looking disheveled (maybe was in the middle of painting a room or just got done doing a long hike on a muddy trail, etc.) -- I was rarely bothered by salespeople when I just wanted to be able to think to myself while evaluating the different trimlines and features available.

"would go to the dealership on days when I was looking disheveled"
 
Why wait days till you look disheveled? Just pop a couple alka-seltzer in your mouth...the salespeople will think you are rabid. Won't come near ya with a 30 foot pole.
Of course they may call the pound or animal control on you.

Another good way to keep the sales folks away from you is:(not necessarily in this order)
 
1. Be talking on your cell phone endlessly while walking the inventory (salespeople will think you lost your way and ended up at the dealership unknowingly)
2. Do not bathe for 1 or 2 weeks (this one works like a charm)
3. Scream at the top of your lungs "who wants to sell me a car today?" and see how quickly the sales people run away from you.
