    Well in the 3 months Jan 10 - Mar 10 Toyota made profits of 112bn yen, $1.2bn or £810m.

    BBC News - Toyota returns to profit despite safety recall concerns


    I guess the lawsuits and resulting costs will make some dent in this but it appears from the above that sales haven't been hit too hard worldwide. I was also interested to see Fords profit for the same period of $2.1bn! No mention of GM though :eek:

    Wouldn't GM and profit be a oxymoron? :D
