The advantage of a ban is that you can also eliminate production and importation. If you have a legal path, that path will be diverted into the black market.

Black market cigarettes, sure. But black market cars? Cars are already individually registered and tracked by the states. You can’t just magic up an illegally imported car and get away with driving it for very long.
