But meeting at some random parking lot without knowing what you're actually buying seems to be the only option. Dealers charge a huge premium for the trust layer, just like hotels did before Airbnb. It's an adversarial market that desperately needs a trusted intermediary, but current players exploit this information asymmetry rather than solve it.
