high-bay warehouse


Explanation:
From a glossary provided to me by a logistics company customer.

Difficult to tell whether it fits in your context, but I can't see it meaning a showroom.

high-bay warehouse


Explanation:
This would be for spare parts - I can't imaging the cars themselves being stored there.

"Vom Hochregallager bis zum Sachbearbeiter-Schreibtisch durchgängig automatisiertes Wertschriften-Handling
The continuous automated handling of securities from the high-bay warehouse to the desk of an executive"

Pretty sure this is also in my Siemens logistics dictionary.
