I suppose so. If they are wrong about the impact on sales with this reduced program they will make adjustments. This is what companies do.

Look, some of you rightfully complaining about this take away will no doubt move to another brand. Some would have moved anyway. Some will move just because of the value comparison or they are just plain pi$$ed. I'm just saying that many other (who knows what percent) will calm down and when their next car purchase comes up, this take away won't be a big factor since they can't find another car company with a car they want over a BMW with a program as good as the reduced program BMW is offering. Sounds like you may be in the first group.
