How'd their competitors do? And are you guys even looking at the numbers? People give BMW a lot of flak around here because they're building X4's and X6's....they can't seem to make enough SUV's to sell. It's their dated cars that are causing the fall. Only car models with YoY increases are the new 7 Series and the still mostly new 2 Series. The rest of the line up is a bit long in the tooth and no one ever expected the i line to actually sell in high numbers.

As models begin to roll out redesigns, that trend should change.
Audi up 7.5%, MB down 3.3%, VW down 10.4%, Buick down 11.3%

YTD
Audi: 4.6%
MB: -.8%
BMW: -10%

I hope the rebates get bigger!

Not many are worse and long in tooth is not a good excuse. Make the cars better the first time and,they won't get long in the tooth so quick. Halogen lights....
