Actually the high end market has been unraveling all year. The oil boom and real estate bubble with real prices zooming way above historical averages are over and all that wealth and income that bought high end cars is now disappearing and quickly.

As an example, there was a seasonal performance school run here in the USA by one of the high end sportscar companies for the past few years. Last year booked solid, this year almost zero bookings and of course the whole multi million dollar event canceled. From what I am hearing through out the business at least here in the USA, is that most high end cars are not moving at all. The largest Lambo store in the world just closed up shop in LA for instance.

With every thing I know first hand, this is going to get far worse. Much worse then most of us have seen. Some companies will go under and many will have to cut staff and dealers.
