A small-volume foreign auto maker limits the number of its franchised dealers in the United States and gives them exclusive territories. There are also non-dealers who have no official connection with the manufacturer. They buy its cars overseas and sell them in the United States, a phenomenon sometimes called a "gray market."

B) Why or why not?
C) How about if you are a franchised dealer?
