In Bob Lutz's book he had an enlightening moment when he found out how much BMW was making per car back in the '70's. Basically BMW had to sell 200K cars in order to make the same profit as MB did on 2K cars. Looks like not much has changed over the years.  |
Not really. Profit would be the net revenue after all those marketing costs, warranties, etc. are accounted for.
