Already sold to service manager
Not to say that employees can't get cars, but it's crazy that "service managers" or "general managers" or a "sales associates cousins wife daughter" keep snatching up these cars. If they're keeping it to drive that's one thing. Chances are they're going to be driven 100KM and then put on sale for 10K + premium. It's a guts me seeing this as we're so close to end of the run*.

* I know it hasn't been confirmed, but it certainly seems that way for those of us in Canada anyway.

??????We will have to wait and see if he keeps it or sells it. I have noted the VIN on this car.

Or they’ll do it like the Moncton dealership. Their service manager traded in his 24 Ralley Red for their 25 Championship White..

Drove it for a year then traded back for a new one so the old one could be re-sold for $67k, probably net zero to him ?
