Hype is hype. Lots of cars get hyped. I think it will take what could have been a higher volume seller and make it a materially more limited volume product.

is you opinion about BMW overpricing this car based on any specific US market knowledge that you have i.e automotive marketing experience, or perhaps you own a dealership?...Please do enlighten us, as based on your info, I might just wait for another year and grab this car at a bargain basement price after it hamstrings.....
Pure opinion based on a decent but certainly not flawless knack for such things. I could be totally, completely wrong.

I am, among other things, CEO of an engine technology company, so I am in close touch with the market, but I don't think that qualifies me any more than anyone here to make an intuitive guess at how this car will do at whatever price BMW chooses.
