Anywhere with good traffic! I mean people traffic. Most of the stores I've seen sell their cars next to a Linden road or some area where you can drive around.

There's a vehicle testing area just above the public sandboxes. But that's owned by the Lindens and they award the shop areas to people by some random lottery I think.

I seem to recall that the Lindens run an "Auto Row" called "Busy Ben's", where vehicle dealers can set up mall space to sell vehicles. And yes, space is allocated there by lottery.

But most vehicle sellers just buy a parcel of land and set up their own car lot, preferably somewhere sort of near a road or water, as appropriate. I bought a hovercraft recently in a store like that, in Bay City.

There was someone selling spaceships in a skybox near CX's former place.

Doesn't really matter where your store is, except for atmosphere (I can't imagine Trudeau Yachts being in a landlocked mall somewhere)...but in the end, the customer's going to take the thing home in his pocket anyway.
