M Performance sales and M Sport models combined with standard M models as well as M Performance accessories provide significant profit, and more are coming.
Where this guy ends up is anybody's guess as well as BMW and BMW M you also have BMWi , MINI and Rolls-Royce.
Very good explanation and info. Sometimes we tend to overlook other countries standards and high taxes. Totally makes perfect sense. Im definetely a fan of the M SPORT and M Performance lines...so yes please keep em comin
