Nissan Backed Toyota Dealership Closes

A Nissan backed Toyota dealership, I don't know what to think of that....
The recently opened Superior Toyota of Oakland hoped to be a rare example of an auto dealership that could swim against the harsh economic tide.

On Tuesday, employees were informed the 200,000-square-foot dealership at 8181 Oakport St. at Hegenberger Road would be shut down at the close of business Tuesday. It came as a surprise as the grand opening of the site was to be scheduled soon, and cars were being placed in the window fronting Interstate 880 this week.

Even a huge sign near Oracle Arena declared the site "now open."
While it's a Toyota dealership, owner Michael Kahn said Nissan actually provided the financing for the new building.
