If memory serves me correct only the 2 series coupe, M2 and certain versions of the 3 series are made in Mexico with that San Luis Potosi has a capacity of up to 300k in cars.
Mexico isn't overseas but majority of sedans aren't coming from Mexico. I would actually be curious to see the breakdown of 3s that come stateside via Mexico. An now many of the 3s made stay in Mexico or go to South America. |

Not looking for a he said she said, but that’s incorrect. Aus numbers are statistically significant. And I can personally speak personally about a statistically insignificant sample size of two lost sales

How does it make sense to continue production of the Z4?
I wonder how the X1/X3 sales compare to Audi and Mercedes We have an X5 And I agree, it is a fantastic car And I'm not a fan of SUVs at all

If you see a BMW on the road, it’s very likely to be X5 or X7. Proof is in the numbers. These two models are the volume and growth leaders for entire BMW company.

You mean X3 or X5. X7 numbers are pretty good as well for the big boy of the SUVs.

Sure. I excluded X3 in my post as that car saw a decline yoy versus X5 and X7 having significantly increased. But yes you are correct as ytd numbers for X3 are impressive as well.

It's kind of sad seeing the slow death of the car. SUV momentum just keeps building and it seems like a matter of time until cars become extremely niche offered by only a small handful of automakers as the domestics have already almost abandoned them.

As the age demographic changes, becoming more mature, so do lifestyle needs and SUVs are filling those lifestyle needs.

Nobody in their right mind (excluding me) should ever consider buying a new 8 series unless you like being bent over in 36 different ways while getting kicked in the jewels 27 different ways. Ask me how I really feel! A well optioned X6 is absolute GOLD! A well optioned M850i is a steaming pile where you have to literally pay someone to take it off your hands.

[QUOTE=Infamy;29704439]3series took a hit with the terrible LCI model and the crappy idrive 8.
I love I drive 8. OLED displays that are larger, much brighter and way higher resolution. A processor that is 10 times faster then its predecessor. The experience is better for just about everything. Do I miss physical climate control buttons? Yes. But overwhelmingly the experience is way better on ID8. ID7 was looking very dated and this has modernized all BMW cars. All anyone focuses on is kissing some buttons while missing how much better the new hardware is. |
