@Blower0 daca n-ai chef sa deschizi articolul, poftim, situatia pe 2014. Hai ca tu stii engleza, tradu-ne si noua :) Atentie la brand-urile Japoneze si Americane ;) BMW ended with a lead last year of more than 9,000 vehicles over Mercedes-Benz, which in 2013 seized a title BMW had held for the previous two years. Last year, Mercedes-Benz outsold BMW by about 3,000 vehicles. BMW won the sales crown in 2011 and 2012. Toyota Motor Corp's (7203.T) Lexus brand narrowed the gap on the two German brands, but remained in third last year with 311,389 vehicles, up 13.7 percent. Volkswagen AG's (VOWG_p.DE) Audi brand overtook General Motors Co's (GM.N) Cadillac for fourth place. Audi's sales of 182,011 were up 15.2 percent while Cadillac sales fell 6.5 percent to 170,750 vehicles. Honda Motor Co's (7267.T) Acura brand showed a 1.5 percent gain in the year to 167,843 vehicles, followed by Nissan Motor Co's (7201.T) Infiniti at 117,300 vehicles, up 0.8 percent. In eighth place but gaining was Lincoln, the Ford Motor Co (F.N) luxury brand that a couple of decades ago was the luxury market leader. Lincoln's sales rose 15.6 percent in the year to 94,474 vehicles.

@Blower asa zici ca doar in Europa e treaba cu BMW ? Ia uite aici: http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/01/05/us-usa-autos-luxury-idUSKBN0KE1RG20150105 Oare din cauza asta, printre primele fabrici deschise de Audi, Mercedes si BMW in afara Germaniei, au fost in SUA, asa-i ? Ca e cea mai ieftina mana de lucru si de acolo le exporta in Coreea si Cuba :)) Z3 se producea in SUA, de unde se exporta chiar si in Europa, dar se vindea excelent in pe piata Americana, mare consumatoare de roadstere, asta inca din anii '90. https://www.bmwusfactory.com/manufacturing/production-overview/

@Sam inca ceva, zicala cu "German build quality" si "European premium feel" o auzi foarte des din gura Americanilor, daca ai urechi sa asculti :)

@Sam93 "Cat despre chestia aia cu calitatea europeana, as zice ca-i doar un snobism tipic european" asta nu explica totusi de ce Audi, BMW, Mercedes si VW vand in prostie in SUA de cateva decenii. La fel cum nici nu explica de ce industria auto americana e falimentara, abia acuma si-au mai scos putin capul, dar e nevoie de mult mai mult de atat. Putem vorbi desigur si de japoneze, si ele fiind alese de multi Americani, in locul celor produse in SUA.

@Blower0 atata timp si talent irosit pe un comment ? pacat... ca esti tanar, nu de alta.
