I wonder if the mega dealers have an interest... that'd be interesting: Carmax or AutoNation; Penske or Sonic. Blend what's valuable about the digital platform with their existing abilities to build bridges with customers (enhance the dealership vs. trying to replace it). Although, I imagine it'd have to get a whole lot cheaper.
The major rental agencies might have an interest... Hertzvana. Kinda catchy...

Carvana might be losing on the stock market, but they're handily beating GM's CarBravo on Google.

CVNA has shut off the buying faucet and ended it's Dealer Partner program. From CVNA's POV, stopping new buying could be
(1) a way to reduce aged inventory --because the new units are so much cheaper--
(2) CVNA's algo could see a significant drop in internet shopper demand.
(3) all of the above
