Sad if true. Sad if a hoax.
Do you have car supermarkets in the US? We have them in Belgium since a couple of years. It is one vendor selling a large number of brands under one roof. Eg a VW next to a Renault or something. They seem to be doing very well. It is understanable to many people I know a car is expensive but replacable item with not much affection to it.
