Default Anyone have actual stats yet?

Seems to me that there are quite a lot of interest with the car in the Autoshow and I've seen several in my neighborhood already.

I see more of this new Bimmer than the A8 in LA. I think it will be a success

Default Beemer Lovers have already drank the Kool-Aid...

( Jonestown for those that don't remember )from their past history of BMW purchases. Even though the new 7-Series ( rear-end ) looks like a Toyota Camry, their cry for "status symbols" makes them buy this ugly contraption. Of course, us Audi lovers had to live through the initial A6 "egg shape" that is slowly improving it's rear-end design, ie transitioned to the new A4 rear-end.

Great PIC !

I'm sure they will have no problem in LA. No one can think for themselves there or anywhere else. Most people just follow the crowd and buy a BMW for its perceived status and nothing else. Sorry, but that's what I think.
