@Pragmatic was 100% correct. Turns out they're deliberately limiting any search results for inventory cars to 72 total as a maximum. (I have no idea if that's a technical limit on the way they implemented the infinite-scroll web page structure, or for marketing reasons).
How do i know for sure that they're limiting the display to 72?
Search with no filters for all available cars, you'll get 72. 4 are DD Pro as of right now, 68 are DD Premium.
Search with a filter for DreamDrive Pro: you'll see 4 as of when i'm posting this.
BUT - Search with a filter for DreamDrive Premium. I of course expected to get 68, but I actually got 72! All distinct VINs, all showing these cars DO have DreamDrive Premium and not Pro.
So there are more cars in inventory than are shown when you do a search on the website.
Let's go figure out HOW MANY real cars are available. Should be simple if I filter by some options and count 'em up, and assuming no one option i pick comes back with the max of 72 cars, then the total of the chosen breakout should be the real number of cars available.
As of the time of this posting:
By Appearence:
- Stealth: 41
- Platinum: 44
= 85 cars available
- SurrealSound: 47
- SurrealSound Pro: 38
= 85 cars available
By Trim:
- Pure: 26
- Touring: 51
- Grand Touring: 8
= 85 cars available
Let's try with colors:
- Stellar White: 15
- Infinite Black: 17
- Zenith Red: 13
- Cosmos Silver: 10
- Quantum Gray: 14
- Fathom Blue: 16
= 85 cars available
So all seems to confirm there are actually 85 2025 cars available.
But one last oddity... searching by roof type does not agree with the other breakouts:
- 57 aluminum roof
- 34 glass roof
= 92 cars available
Can't explain that last one, but there definitely are either 85 model year 2025 cars available or maybe 92. Regardless, i now know i can't go by the "cleared filters" total number shown. That will always be <= 72 cars.
