disappointing review in more ways then one
the review itself was a joke. entirely subjective and vague in its criticisms. they don't point to anything specific or useful in panning the car. what? it didn't excite them quite enough? too bad.

not surprising, the English love Audi
Audi sells more cars in the UK than anywhere else, including the US, so i'm not surprised they're not gaga for BMW. just shows that the english do have some intelligence about cars.

Re: not surprising, the English love Audi
i can't believe Audi sells more cars in the UK than in Germany. i imagine it's not even close.
as for the US, the total sales numbers are almost fringe, they're that low...comparably.

Re: Vehicle sales by market detail...
and considering the size and population of the US vs UK, for the UK to outsell, is pretty telling. what's BMW's annual US sales figure? about 275,000?
