If they follow the Tesla/Rivian/Lucid model they'd have "galleries" which might have a few cars on hand to show off, see paint and fabric samples, hopefully have someone knowledgeable on hand to answer questions, and test drive but you then go place an order for a new one.

There are a few Tesla galleries near me despite not being legal to be sold in my state.

Yup.

This model makes so much more sense than needing dealerships with hundreds of cars filling a massive parking lot.

You could have a showroom with a couple of your best looking models, then outside just have one of each model ready for a test drive. You decide you like one? You place an order and have it there in a couple weeks.

A showroom can exist and not be an independently-owned dealership. In fact such showrooms could stock multiple brands, like any other brick-and-mortar store we frequent.

In your Apple Vision Pro of course.
