Sort of

but that's exactly the problem with sports cars in the long term for companies though.
My friends mom is a manager at a Nissan Dealership, and his father is a manager at a Major Dodge, Chrysler Jeep Fiat dealer in the area and works for MOPAR there. My friend worked there over the summers and such when we were leaving high school and specifically the online sales stuff. They hated cars like the GT-R, 370z, Challenger, viper, abarth, and SRT vehicles sales wise because they sat on the lot for around 5-8 months and they would get calls and messages online for them and then no one would show up with money. Cars like the Durango, Grand Caravan, dart, versa, Rogue and pathfinder they would get at least 3-4 of sold each day alone online by legitimate people further away. The market for these cars is exactly as described it's a niche only car people or people that like the look of the car and don't need anything "practical" will buy it.
