It's no conspiracy, it's legal, the cars are there at the time the ad was printed, if they sell before you get there, they try to switch you to another one, if the car is still there, but you want another color, no problem, they will sell you another one but not at that price cause it is only good for that very car. Yes Stock numbers are required here in NC as well, but the price is only good for that very stock number. If a car sits on a dealers lot for a long time, the dealer is losing money on it as per their "floor plan" (which is them basically having a loan out on that car until it sells). If the car has been sitting for 60 days, the dealer will sell it at a loss just to get rid of it, so might as well put it in the paper to attract more business. We used to do the same thing, it works well. It takes money to make money, a dealer will lose $500 to make $5000.

I think it's to prove that the particular car exists. Publishing an ad like this one without the stock numbers would be illegal. The disclaimer at the bottom is from the newspaper, not of the dealership. Check the other ads.
