Does that mean that the change in the 6-series market strategy that Scott was talking about a month ago (shrinking and going after the 911 and SLS AMG) is meant for the generation after the G14 and G15?

The fact that the disappearance of Touring is the main item in my latest update helps me maintain my faith in the future of humanity. Thank you.
All we can hope for now is the government passing T-TIP. It provides for unified vehicle safety standards, which would make it easier to import EU vehicles. |

Not necessarily. Specifics of model design is not something I can report on.

F80 EOP is 2018??? So there are only 4 model years, that doesn't seem right.
2015 2016 2017 2018 (EOP before 2019 MY) Normally there are 6 model years for the M3 |

Shame. That said, maybe I'll have to buy out the F31 at lease end. It's been a peach.

Well in the past there was some difference between the 2 market. Usa never had the 323i E90 which we had from 2006 to 2011, the X1 came as a 2012 MY in Canada a year before usa, same goes for the 320i F30. Also I guess you never had the classic line F30 328xi? Mercedes has bring the C300D wagon to canadian market only.

They don't need to be all over the streets to make sense though. It's actually nice owning/driving a unicorn. I honestly don't want that many here. But BMW does. And if they can't envision one in every driveway, they won't sell it here. Meanwhile, Volvo imports a handful of V60 Polestars and they sell out. Merc continues to sell a 600hp wagon even though it's one of the rarest cars on the road. BMW *could* sell wagons here. We just have to convince them to do so.

The 6er will continue with a 2+2 Convertible and a Fixed Roof Coupe (most likely only a 4dr Gran Coupe) The Z5 Roadster and Z6 Coupe, along with their model derivatives, will be the new market position competitors. |

Remember, this is the company that told US buyers they needed a 5GT, a car approximately 0 people asked for. And yet there's a new generation coming. We all get how well SUVs sell here, but that has nothing to do with the price of tea.
