why can dealers inflate the price on cars by 10k 20k etc?
Also why cant you bypass the dealer and go to the manufacturer directly?
Because enough women are dumb enough to buy them at inflated prices.
Because that's illegal.

>In the United States, direct manufacturer auto sales are prohibited in almost every state by franchise laws requiring that new cars be sold only by dealers.
Because of state and federal laws. Because of lobbying.

Because they can.
Because they don't want to employ salesmen or deal with customers.
Have you tried refusing to buy the car at that price?
Or not being poor?

It's possible in Yurop.
Well in fact you don't go to the factory and buy a car over the counter, but proxy dealers can buy cars and sell them at lower prices than brand dealers (usually somewhere between 20-30% off, up to 40%).
You can make some pretty good deals, if you're not too picky about options, colour etc.
