No, it's not. It's saying that in certain states the definition of a car dealership precludes Tesla's current sales facilities (i.e., mall storefronts) from finalizing sales.

Tesla can still maintain these storefronts, and still negotiate and reach an agreement in principle in these storefronts. It simply can't finalize (i.e., sign the contract) in these storefronts. The reasons for this vary from state to state, so I won't even bother try to explain the justifications.
