Seems legit to me, but then again I'm a complete moron..

8,653 cars over four dealerships in three days is
961~721 cars per dealer per day. (edit: fixed my math)No dealership carries that many cars in one go, much less even capable of processing that many sales within 24hrs. Your average dealership sells maybe 100 cars a month.

8,653 cars over four dealerships in three days is ~961 cars per dealer per day.
*~721 (you accidentally divided by 3x3 instead of 4x3 for dealerships x days)
(Which is still absurd, of course)
-
It’s roughly 722, which isn’t far off enough of 961 to make a difference in the plausibility of this claim, but I wanted to throw that out there.
-
Could they be inflating it using internarional order fulfillment/ shuffling cars to other dealerships? A dealership in idk India wants a Model X with a specific trim and motors, so they pack and ship,and count it as sold from these 4 Canadian inventories? Also moving them to the US for sales since they're not selling well internationally?

Some salesman must be making one hell of a commission.
-
-
There are loosely 5,000 new car sales per day for the whole country.
Not legit.

When Canada started investigating this, Trump started his threats of invasion.
Just in case you still don't know who the actual president is.
That's not entirely accurate- the threats were present before this occurred, he just ramped up the threats afterwards.
