In the business - if a vehicle remains in inventory for a year it’s said to have “A Birthday”. Not a good thing!
Aware of one manufacture (Jaguar) that actually requires the dealer to report the cars sold and begin the manufactures warranty. Not a good thing for the Dealer or Customer!
Typically there is nothing wrong with the unsold vehicle, salesmen and customers just walk around it.
The car is discounted until it sells.

Dealers keep selling them until they are gone. Some are sold at auction then the buyers keep selling them until they are gone.
About six months ago, I looked at a 2005 Ford Conversion Van. It had been on the dealer's lot for about 18 months. It had never been sold. The sales price was $47,000 on the orignal sticker. The asking price whas reduced to $26,000 before it sold.

They go to the same place that dryer sock went to. They go to where all helium ballons go. They go with the toys that are not a fad anymore. It is a very large warehouse, just outside of Marfa, Tx. It is a secret, to most, instigated by Bush and Cheney, so that they can have lots of antiquesd, other then Cheney, when they get old and poor.

The unsold cars are placed in a corner in the back of the lot as a "last resort" offer when a customer is walking away. They do the same with scratch,dent, and leased given baxck...

Usually they either go to other lots to be sold under the same franchise, eg. from one Ford dealership to another, or they are sold at dealer auctions.
