It’s a delicate ecosystem: the car salesmen need their cut to spend on drinking and gambling or else the bars and dog tracks will shut down causing more unemployment.
you can order a Ford Mustang Mach E from their website and have it shipped to a dealer and never really do anything at the dealers except get your new car
I don’t want amazon involved in anything, but I’ve bought a car off the internet before and had it delivered. I only had to to go anywhere to do the wire transfer at my bank.
Also dealerships: $10k mark up on this bad boy!
Why do we even have dealerships?

All part of a petroleum-based economy.
Not to mention coke isn’t exactly cheap when it’s not served in a bottle or a glass.
Right? And if the coke dealers go, there go the exotic cat dealers too.
10k markup? amateur!
Try 30K…70K…100K!

I’d like to be able to order a vehicle off Amazon and have it delivered. That really isn’t so crazy.
Yes, especially since they don’t have to be fitted like clothes or shoes. It’s off-the-shelf anyways.
That’s the one thing where I agree with Musk, they’re not necessary.

Cannot you buy Hyundai through Amazon?
Apparently you can order it but you still have to go to a dealer to settle the deal and pick it up. So, lame.
