But what's to say that things will go back to what they were before pre-COVID? Across the board, I think BMW/Audi/Mercedes, while volume might be down in some regions, profit is likely higher so what's the reason to pump dealers with supply? If everyone's profit is up with "supply issues", there really is no reason to oversupply dealers only to discount and achieve relatively the same amount of profit.
Then you start looking at cash flow, floor plan and interest at a dealership level and those things are no longer a burden.
