"The Saturn dealers will not go that quietly. They will likely try to force GM into doing one of two things: 1) give them money to go away or, 2) get back in the room with Penske and work out a deal." Don't Expect Saturn Dealers to Go Quietly (CNBC)

Only those dealers who contributed to the Obama campaign "are safe"?

Replying to: oregonboy (Oct 01, 2009 10:15 pm) I'm a bit more surprised to see that no one picked up the Mazda dealership because it had already changed hands a couple of years ago. Meanwhile, the VW-Porsche-Audi place I had shopped a Passat at 10 years ago and then promptly burned down started rebuilding a couple of years ago and then sudden;t stopped so if you want to open a new dealership there's a nice half built one there for you.... |

Replying to: british_rover (Oct 02, 2009 12:03 pm) Got to the Chevy dealer which I know is on the list for going away but had looked OK in terms of how full the lot was - low but OK. Well, upon further inspection, it turns out almost everything in the back of the lot are new Hyundais! The local Hyundai guy is using it as his overflow lot. My guess is that when the Chevy dealer goes away the Hyundai deler will move in as his current place is very small. The Hyundai dealership only opened up this year. My guess is he picked where he currently is as a temporary location until a real place opened up (he's currently in an old furniture store).
