    I just can't help but laugh when I see the obvious spin in this MF post. It's pure Gabe.

    How convenient to leave the word "worldwide" out of the post title in order to gloss over the fact that U.S. sales have been in the toilet for six months.

    "...incredible..?" Give me a break.

    Don't shoot Joe. He's just the messenger.

    That's world wide. They try to gloss over the FAILURE in the US market.

    FYI Joe Clubman is just a fake user same ( Not a real person ) that is used to pull these stupid stories into MA from MF.

    If things continue to go sour for MINI sales.... Expect to see something like....

    MINI sales in Lichtenstein have reached a record breaking all time grossing magnum high. Minis sold in the 4th quarter of 2016 as compared to 4th quarter 2015.... 500% increase (Lichtenstein units sold in 2015.... 1 many unitses):Thumbsup:

    You are forgetting to use "premium" and upper crust and pretentious , etc a few times....
    It's like they are trying to justify the price by declaring themselves"premium" and becoming a "fashion" brand...
    See the new extra items they sell...lol.
    It feels like they are just trying to copy Apple.

    ...and, of course, the obligatory correction to their post title.
