Go to YouTube and search for the series "made by hand".

You'll see what built the brand, and then the hedge fund article will even piss you off even more.

Anyone note what the average profit per car was in the article? I have nothing against profit, BUT that figure could pretty easily be used in an equation to see just how much it cost to build each car....

Build quality aside, I see that a large amount of that profit comes from the overpriced options, I see that as the real bread and butter of their strategy.
