Politely put it: some of the newer models are not-that-nice-looking :verysad: Especially paired with engines that sound like lawn-mowers :sickinbe:

Re: What happened to BMW sales here?

Very simple, because BMW do not have any model under Cat A, their ranking will continue to drop

i don't really find a huge difference in terms of FC between my 318 (17") and Altis (15") ...

maybe its because BMW have a smaller pool of models in Cat A, hence the drop in market share

Surprise to see 1 Holden sold considering its price tag.

It has nothing to do with how big your wheels are.

Only weight of wheels matter.

It is call unsprung weight.

In car forums where people just copy and paste what they read from forums, this is correct.

In physics context...think moment of inertia. This means, a lighter but bigger wheel may be more difficult to turn than a smaller but heavier wheel.

Re: What happened to BMW sales here?

I m glad that BMW is losing sales as there is no CAT A car.

All these CAT A BMW is diluting the brand.

On the brighter note, there will be less competition at PML service, so hopefully better service.
