    To comply with the franchise dealership laws, Amazon can’t list vehicles for sale the way it lists, say, books or socks. Instead, it needs to partner with dealers.

    Okay so nothing new here. Yet another front end for interaction with local dealerships. The NADA continues to get their pound of flesh.

    So do they provide the screwdriver and USB cable for the ignition, or do I have to provide my own?

    I guess this could be a good way to browse local dealership inventory, but that’s about it. Still got to haggle with someone on commission.

    Lol, like I’d ever buy a Hyundai after that fiasco in the United States.
