A4 segment share -- can this be right?

I saw this posted on a BMW forum and I was genuinely surprised to see A4 sales so much lower than BMW 3 Series sales. Is this accurate?<ul><li><a href="http://forums.roadfly.com/forums/bmw/bmw_3_series_e90/8190250-1.html">A4 segment share data from Roadfly BMW forum</a></li></ul>

I believe it

In Toronto, tons of 3-series, and more newer ones I see, well at least where I roam around in Toronto (north part of TO). Very few A4s and if I do see one, they're typically the B5 or B6.

However, I go downtown, I'll see more B7s but 3-series still out numbers the A4.

Probably not too far off.

BMW sells a boatload more cars than Audi, so this doesn't sound too far off.

Yes...at least in North America

the 3-series is certainly a dime a dozen in Texas...I'd say for every 2-3 e90 bimmer's you'll catch an A4 (present and past platforms). I think Audi outsells in China and has a similar presence/sales as other German marquees in Europe
