There have been shit tons. Fiat bought Chrysler as a troubled asset. That was after Daimler bought it then sold it back because it lost them a shit ton of money. My favorite was when Harley Davidson bought MV Agusta (because why the fuck not?) for 109 million euros in 2008, spent 20 million euros on it, then sold it back to the Italians for 3 euros. Not 3 million. Three. After Proton did the same thing did the same thing in 2004 and 2005, except the numbers were 70 million euros and 1 euro respectively.
