$42,000 starting MSRP's, optional 6MT, a whole selection of performance options...that doesn't sound like 'catering to the masses' to me. It sounds like a car company that is catering to car buyers who have money to spend. BMW has always charged a premium. And the badge seems to attract buyers in many countries, not just China.

BMW used to crush their german counterparts in comparos for a long time. I remember reading from 90's all the way up to around 2009 that whenever there was a german comparo, BMW won by big margin. That's a long time of excellence over competition, not just one or two years. Fact is that BMW is losing ground like never before and as a BMW enthusiast its very alarming.
