This is the correct way to account for it, but I seriously doubt they are losing cash on each one they sell. I believe that if this car beats Chevy's internal volume sales goals, it will really improve their P&L.

Enough with my Accounting talk! I love the way the car looks and if I had that level of discretionary income, I would definitely have this car on my very short list of cars to purchase. Right now, my son's tuition payment is like buying one of these cars each year.
