Cost per VDP, of course, is going to be pretty miniscule - around .06 each  on pre-owned. If I can figure a way to filter out the "event" cars (mechanic's specials, $500 OTD, etc), that will help get a more beneficial metric. That inventory is also what, I feel, is skewing our performance metrics. We receive a TON of leads on the super cheap cars (need transmissions, have 5 different colors of paint, etc) - from all across the country, so far, nobody has been willing to buy a $1,000 vehicle, and spend another $1,000+ in transport to get it to where they live.


I have another call with our CG rep, at some point, as they essentially keep going back to "talk to the manager" and see what they can do for us.
