If your word is that these businesses pay no attention to customer feedback, return business rates/retention, or early returned rentals, I won't. Your appeal to authority fails to pass muster. You are basically positing that they have no performance metrics. I find it difficult to believe you could make that argument with a straight face. Additionally, what pray tell would constitute 'hard statistical evidence' of a businesses internal policies? Are you asking for me to publish their internal policies and practices verbatim? Quote:

Business 101 is maximizing profits not selling less with a higher profit margins..selling a 1000 less or more camaros a month from previous years can't be what GM had in mind and I believe begins to put the camaro in the fringe discontinued car line. The profits are a drop in the over all GM budget and could actually be almost irrelevant..its still in third selling poorly according to me!

Why would Camaro need to "pick up sales slack"? GM has dozens of automobiles across the portfolio. ATS and CTS aren't immune to the shrinking luxury sedan market. They will be folded back into one sedan as existed prior to 2013. Alpha platform was also developed with a CUV in mind so who knows if/when that will happen. That's clearly where the market is going.

So does the price play a role or not? You can't say "it's not the price totally" and then immediately offer a lower priced version as a solution.

It might be their choice, but sitting on unsold inventory can kill your profits, real quick. It's better to sell it at some profit than sit on it with no profit. Why would Camaro need to pick up the slack of ATS/CTS? To keep the plant moving. Idle plant = lost money. Yes ATS/CTS aren't immune to the growing demand for CUV's, IMO that puts pressure on Camaro to pick up some Alpha volume. BUT Like I agreed with you, GM is in better shape than FoMoCo or Fiat Chrysler so whatever they are doing is working. |

What kind of troll keeps coming back here to make trouble and talk sh!t, month after month.
Mustang trolls suck. Mustangs suck. We don't give a damn what you think. GTFOH - or we can visit regularly. Go to a Mustink site troll! Your posts are the joke here. Not a funny joke, either. ESAD

You sound like a child, holy shit. If anything your post is the joke. I can enjoy the banter back and forth with sensible posts and a good argument, your post does none of that. These threads on both sides of the forums bring out the worst. I'm not sure why people bicker back and forth over this subject. The only ones that can translate the numbers to whether or not they are viable for their business is the manufacturers. Everything else is just speculation. |
