Luke Perry? Honestly? They might as well have flown in Donk from Crocodile Dundee . . .

Really? Come on...
Heh. It was a huge contributor, but not the reason. It's ok, the dealership will reopen.

If you know it, spill it. I've read many implications thus far but everyone seems too scared to make an actual statement of the facts.

I think there is more to the story than just the economy. Sounds like something shady may have occurred which led to the closure IMO.

Jox, apparently Luke Perry was selling cars at the dealership because his career went downhill after 90210 ended. Now that the new 90210 is on the air he's going to be on the show, therefore quitting his job at the Lambo dealership. That is a picture of him walking out after quitting.

Vik (the owner) made some poor business decisions (both personally and with OC Lambo) and they were forced to close shop.

If you're responding to me, I'm not spilling anything.

People who are close to the situation and know what's going on are not going to throw Vik under the bus or make asinine statements about him and pass them off as "fact".

The only important fact at this point is that Audi is not ready to let the source of 10+% of their worldwide Lamborghini sales close its doors permanently.
