Didn't "snip" anything. I clearly mention that the 3er is BMW's number 1 seller. You can't "rely on" or "let" something be a volume seller...you actually have to sell it.

We can go on and on and on...you can't kill the 3 series.

THE END

BMW gambles each time they come out with a new model. They also gamble after each LCI cycle . I'm sure the start-up costs for a new (non prior based platform) are astronomical.
