    Something like cars below a certain value maybe, and with a high enough population.
    So for example a Covet 13S (I think it was called that, I mean the JDM exclusive 1.3 Covet)

    I have another idea for dealerships: Generally, it seems that the vehicles you can buy are based on their population rating, which makes a lot of sense but has one tiny drawback: It is really difficult to get some more rare vehicles in career mode.

    As such I would like to suggest that similar to the Commercial Car Dealership we get an

    - Quirky Car Dealership" where you can buy those rare cars like the Wigeon with a reasonable chance.

    Thank you for consideration. :)

    A few quick responses!

    This is planned, just not yet implemented as we work on the basics of dealerships and UI :)

    This is planned for later down the road, among other businesses :)

    Yup, the first "quick and dirty" implementation of dealership populations were based only on this, but it certainly deserves a higher fidelity system - we'll get to this when we circle back to it! :)

    Private deals for expensive cars like the scintilla (witch maybe you can unlock after a specific level) would a cool idea too.

    Without any editing I've seen the Scintilla in private a few times at around 50k-70k. If you increase the number of cars available you're bound to see private listings of Scintilla every few refreshes. With the way it's set, almost every car is set to appear as a private seller with the exception of trucks. So no D-series no H-series no Stambecco and definitely no T-series.

    Wait, that’s weird. You’d think there would be private sales of trucks, as there definitely are in real life.

    Well, there are also quite a bit of private semi truck sales, though not to the scale and extent of other, smaller trucks (in the US).

    Great points about missing vehicles folks! Just wanted to give you a heads up – I've tweaked the vehicle options in the marketplace as a quick test on my end, and I can now see D-Series showing up in private sales. Initially, we had it set to hide all trucks, but I've made a change so that only semi-trucks are excluded. This means you'll see pickup trucks and H-series in private sales again. Unfortunately, this update won't go public separately. If you need it sooner, you can manually edit the "dealerships.facilities.json" file in the game\levels\west_coast_usa\facilities directory. Sorry for the troubles folks – it's still a work in progress, but we'll make sure to handle it properly down the road!

    There are many private semi sales in real life... In fact, I don't really see many dealerships selling used tractor-trailers.
