Do you think VW is a profitable car company?

My thoughts exactly when I watched the moving hardwood floor and robots delivering parts to workstations. Imagine the cost of that plant - plus the time, effort, and money of debugging it. Cripes, we get a new software package or even "upgrade" and we're down for weeks anyway. And a computer that counts the bolts used and in sequence - you had better offer only one exactly identical model or have good preprogramming for option packages.
