You have to pay for your car before it goes to the assembly line.
·
If the car gets a scratch during assembly, it's melted down and they start again, however, this very seldom happens.

One employee came up with the idea to make a cover that fits on the areas of the cars that would most likely get scratched. That employee was awarded a HOUSE for the use of their idea.

No two cars coming off the assembly line are exactly alike.
