That really looks like half of a two-page spread to me. I'd be very interested to see the page immediately before it. Mainly because I think this is more a case of the center page falling out of the paper than anything else.

You can tell they're "wholesale prices" because the numbers all end in 950, not 999 ...

Seriously, even if this is part of a two-page spread, it would have been a good idea on the part of the advertiser to have some identification on both pages, just in case they get separated. A competent layout artist would likely have suggested just that.

(And who the heck buys cars "wholesale" anyway?)

E.T., people who re-sale them. :P

apparently they will be undersold...

surely it is a double-spread, but that doesn't excuse them from one of the basic rules of this format - make sure your logo or company info is visible on both pages (even if in 8-pt. font).

and there's not a single bimmer in sight on the page.

If one would notice in the bottom right of the ad, another broken thing, the ad advertises for a 1997 Chrysler Neon Sport, however, Chrysler doesn't sell the Neon, Dodge does. Odd...
