Makes sense. People getting used to the design, some hate it, love it, who knows. Plus, the 3 series is more popular. If its anything like the order bank lists for the M3/M4, 3 to 1 seems to make sense.

But what happened YTD 2022???

Year to date 2022 NA 3 series sold=14,330
Year to date 2022 NA 4 series sold=14,025

That is an almost a 40 percent decrease in 3 series sold and a 12 percent increase in 4 series sold.

Am I looking at this incorrectly? I give a literal fuck about wars and supply chain covid bullshit. These are numbers. They show that the 4 series increased in sales. So what are you looking at or seeing that I am not?
Remember that the Gran Coupe and i4 were also introduced within the last year. Those two will make up the majority of 4er sales and increase total sales.
