What is the definition of a 'sale'?
BMW NA stocks up dealer inventory - cars that sit on dealer lots and at that point are 'owned' (read financed) by the dealers - that can be considered a sale from BMW NA to dealers and a reflection of the numbers you see posted. Then dealers sell *some* of these inventory cars to consumers and that sale is final upon title registration. I always wondered about the 'inflated' sales numbers BMW NA posts - are those title registrations or more like production numbers of units delivered to dealer lots. My local dealers seem to have a ton of i3s in 'stock'...
