That to me definitely explains such a big difference..

Anyways- CONGRATS BMW
Agreed, it's good to be the king.
But the interesting thing is that sales of the F30 have not been radically different than the sale of the previous platform (see bmwconfig data for instance). And the F30 is much newer and it probably benefitted a lot from post-hurricane purchases.
We will see how the F30 sells over time with the flow of newer models coming from Cadillac, Infiniti and in two years, audi and Mercedes.
The real surprise for me is how good the class C still sells.
