Dealer news from WardsAuto and around the web.

Welcome to The  WardsAuto Dealer 5  for Tuesday, September 23. To start your day, we've put together important items from WardsAuto.com and across the Internet. So let's go:

1.

2. 


Dead rock stars are enlivening today's car ads. The latest example: Sid Vicious singing "My Way" for Acura. Opera lovers beware. 
 

3. 

Operating inefficiencies are bad, period, but especially when dealers face squeezed profits margins. Our management expert tells what to do about it. 
 

4. 


They’ve been around for years, but they’re still controversial. At issue (again): devices that deactivate a car if timely payments aren’t made. Lenders and borrowers hold different views on remote repos.
 

5. 


NADA offers a tip to a federal bureau: “Make sure you fully understand the industry you’re attempting to regulate.”
