Wow! You just don't get it.
That's fine. I'll keep this going.
Yes, the my 97 Camry CE is the only thing that I majorly drive. My parents both drive Lexuses. My dad drives a GS300 and my mom drives an 06 RX330. My sister has a 2003 Camry LE.
I work at a BMW dealership, so therefore I drive ALL BMWs. New, used, trade ins...whatever you can think of...I've driven. Yesterday (Tuesday)...I delivered a black on black...with dark tint, 750i. You probably haven't even driven a 750i, let alone touched one.
My point is, that I get variety between German and Japanese vehicles...and trust me. I LOVE the BMWs. More than the Lexuses at my house. I switched the 750i for our loaner X5 4.4 listed at around $56K. Let me tell you again, how much I would rather have a *newer BMW* than an import Japanese anyday.
And Mini, eh'.

In it's FIRST year!
And, I'm not going to go into the numbers of BMW 3 Series that were sold.
I'm telling you, Minis don't sell as well as BMWs, but they've slowly progressed since 2001.
