I was pattern matching Carvana to a company called Sidecar[0] this summer when I heard my friend say he bought a car for something like $5k less than any dealership in town was offering it for. Sidecar was the "3rd company" that did ride-sharing in my city in 2014-2015, after Lyft and Uber. Somehow they were selling rides from any point in the city to any other point in the city for $1. I suppose it was getting subsidized by VC money; and I took probably $500 worth of rides for a year or so until it shut down.
