Detriot: selling cars from afar

Article Abstract:

New marketing ideas have revolutionized the used car industry in Detroit, Michigan resulting in increased sales to 18.5 million which is nearly 4 million more than new car sales. Used car dealers are using computer technology as well as making their showrooms more accessible for the whole family offering refreshments and play areas. In contrast the new car industry is facing a decline as less cars are sold and reduction in profit margins is resulting in fewer dealerships.
