The O'Niell document also mentions the relocation of FixAuto to 969 Topsail Road. The FixAuto franchise is now owned by Capital Auto Group and is in Donovans.
There aren't many premium car brands that we don't currently have in St. John's. Other than moving Acura across the street the other brands that we don't have that would make sense are Lexus and Porsche. Lexus is usually associated with the local Toyota dealership as Lexus is a Toyota brand.
Also given that Porsche is next to Jaguar, Land Rover, and Volvo in Halifax... it makes me think Porsche could be the un-named luxury brand.
I wouldn't expect to see a Lamborghini or Ferrari or Alpha Romeo dealership here.
