This report is interesting because it suggests a cloudy lining to recently-reported sales success and perhaps a significant wake-up call for the performance side of the company. It's all about F30 sedans, Euro-only 1ers, and X3s. Performance models are all flat or in rapid decline. Americans are buying four-door models and barely glancing at the sexy coupes and convertibles on the other end of the floor.
