Inventory as a financial asset — not a list of vehicles.
What is happening with your inventory?
Your capital is concentrated in the 31–60 day and 61–90 day buckets. $182,440 sits in 7 vehicles past your 60-day threshold, and 10 units are priced at margins well below your 12.7% historical average.
The unit that deserves attention first is the 2020 BMW 330i — 64 days in stock at a -2.8% estimated margin. That is a compression problem, not a price-tag problem.
