2013 U.S. sales:
BMW\Mini = 375,782
Audi = 158,061
Mercedes\SMART=321,798
Jag\LR = 66,962
Cadillac = 182,543

Spin, baby, spin.

Losing market share, is losing market share, is losing market share.

BMW even lost the #1 spot this year for luxury sales. They barely kept pace with the overall growth in the new auto market. That is not "dominating."
