I told the salesman that I was not interesting in buying the latest model. vs I told the salesman that I were not interesting in buying the latest model.

The correct phrase is: 'I told the salesman that I was not interested in buying the latest model.' The verb 'was' should be used with 'I' as the subject, and 'interested' should be used instead of 'interesting' to describe the lack of interest in buying the latest model.
