[QUOTE="purplesky, post: 1197214, member: 23628"] I am talking about all car brands made in America which also include Volkswagen, Mercedes Benz, BMW, Subaru, Honda, Toyota, Acura, Hyundai, Mazda, Mitsubishi,etc. You can throw out numbers all day long about the factory profit margins BUT NOBODY REALLY KNOWS FOR SURE?. The car makers sure as hell aren't going to tell you a real number. You can spin factory profit margins. They are paying some workers $14hr(30k per year) to build a 40k car. Any 40k car that sells just average numbers in a successful year is going to provide way more than $2000 profit per unit to the factory. Especially a car that stays in production for several years with no major changes. Also factory financing adds to the profit of each vehicle. Buyer pays shipping and prep. Buyer also pays dealer fee which can be as high as $400 to cover ad fees or whatever. [/QUOTE]
