However, the rumor that GM is loosing money on units under $85k is just that, a bad rumor. There is no way that they are loosing a penny on any of them, just making a lot more on highly optioned cars, just like BMW does.

I find that rumor reasonable if you assume there were R&D costs to redesign the C8 and they have to amortize those costs over each vehicle sold but who knows.
It will be super exciting to see what happens to other mfg product lines when GM is really able to meet demand. Hoping that means prices falling across the board for sports cars and newer vehicles having better value propositions.
