yeah...its basic economics...the 'cheaper' more fuel effficient luxury cars/ pseudo luxuxry cars are not going to sell well in this country, simply because we are power hungry. If a 123d was sold here, it would be at least $25K, which is eating into the high end altima territory, not to mention, the Mazda speed3 and the likes. The consumer, who is power hungry will go for the high horsepower Mazda3. BMW (or others) will not be able to justify the costs associated with getting the car USA ready just to sell a handful of units.
