Exactly.
Who knows what the break-even on this car line is.
If you want to argue "profit per vehicle" as some insist on, we also
do not know the fixed costs for the Camaro line or each car's individual variable costs. The only way this sales trend could be acceptable is if the car was so overpriced to begin with that all fixed costs were recouped in 9 months of sales. Who wants to take that bet? Way, way too much speculation on zero fact.
But generally speaking for consumer goods, poor sales= poor profit= eventual cancellation.
