The idea is that each line of car have their own "brand specialists",
so that they can be better trained to focus on just that line.  This
makes them more knowledgeable and can better represent the brand (well,
at least in theory).  AOA is really pushing this concept lately.  In fact,
they are going one step further to convince as many dealers to become
exclusive Audi dealers, or at least put Audis in its own showroom, separate
from other marques.
