not so new cars

A pretty high percentage of brand new cars that are sitting a new car dealerships have had body work done. I used to own a small body shop and the dealerships kept me in business with the amount of brand new cars they brought to me.
They would even have the plastic still stuck all over the outside, the way they come from the factory. Then they take it back and put it on the lot and sell it as new.
The damage comes from the guys who drive the car hauler semis. Everything from small scrapes and dings, to dropping cars on top of one another.
I would estimate that about 15% of them get some kind of damage.
