yes the facelift is out but just like a month ago and the sales just started in US. I say it again when BMW get their act together and times get better I'm pretty sure to E90 will be on top again. Drawbacks will happen sooner or later and now it has happen but it doesnt mean it cant change to the better again. C-class sold better this year and congratz to that but it doesnt mean this is going to happen every year from now.

Audi A4 is selling better than C-class and E90 in Europe. If the Audi had stronger image in US I think it would be the best selling car in the segment.

Can you explain that part please. And also, has the C class sales been as a result of BMW somehow 'dropping the ball' with the 3 series??

No, I cant explain it. Talk to Eni about it or send email to BMW. I'm just a graphic designer, not a markeeting analyser. But I read enough to understand BMW are doing bad. All car companies are probably hurting now, just that some are hurting more than others.
Anyhow, this isnt the place to discuss BMW and how the company is feeling. Its neither posted in internal combustion and the thread is about C-class sales , not the company BMW.
Feel free to create another thread about the subject.

Bollocks. 1. You mentioned that, not me. 2. The thread is about MB C class sales, and consequently its rivals too. 3. Dont make statements you cant defend then.

I honestly dont even get why some members feel they have to defend 'everything' that's not to their liking thats mentioned about BMW on this forum.

Dont get upset now. No I cant defend it and you cant say I'm wrong either. I've explained the reasons why I think BMW E90 are doing bad, if its true or not I dont know. My statesments are based on what I read and I dont have the knowledge to analyse it deeper and this isnt the thread to do it. It deserves its own thread and for those knows better in this subject.

Re: Its 500 000 and Still Going for The BABY BENZ

Meh bad excuses thats all..

BMW and MB are getting equally hurt by this financial crisis..
And there is no report of BMW dropping the ball YET..
And for sure not when it comes to the 3er..which is a much praised car..
both from journalists and fans..( even non fans)

Im not getting upset. But dont ask me to email BMW. lol Oh, and i must have missed your explanation..

And AFAIK, compared to loads of companies BMW are doing just fine and are nowhere near any jeopardy right now. Of course there's a crisis right now and sales/profits are down for the industry, but BMW aint sinking dont worry. Personally, i believe there was a diva like over reaction to the cancellation of the concept CS on this forum
