Default Who owns the demonstrators

Who owns the demonstrators that sit on showroom floors. I was always under the impression that car yards buy the cars from the manufacturers, and they ensure they have sufficient cars on hand for potential customers to look at and try (demonstrators). Not only is it weird that Holden dealers have quite a few 2010 cars on carsales.com with under 100 k's, but now Holden have on their own website (and ads on TV), SV6 demonstrators that are selling for approx $1500 less than a new SV6.

How do Holden know that they have many SV6's "demonstrators" out there, that have the same wear and tear that allows them to advertise them for the same price. And suprisingly even tho the ad states for cars manufactured from june 2011 to oct 2011, they still all come with 12 months reg (where as most ads for demonstrators normally say "balance of 12 months reg"). Have Holden just dropped the price of an SV6 by $1500, but in order to protect future pricing, are selling new cars off as demonstrators.
