It would be interesting to compare this with how many of the E65 were sold in its first month.

I don't think that you could do a one to one comparison on the sales figures considering the current economies state we are in!?!

Nonetheless, 917 units sold in one month (for the US market alone) is quite impressive especially considering what I just mentioned above!

That's the aspect which was of interest to me.

Ah ok, that makes sense

What I found most interesting about this article was what they had stated about the combined January and February sales figures for the new 750... 30 units ?!?

Then in March alone they sold 917 ... wow what a jump.

Mind you though, the car wasn't really available before then. So it sort of does make sense. I guess those 30 cars were pre-orders?

Again, those figures are for the US market only!

as a means to compare in october 08 bmw sold approximately 1096 7 series and in october 07 that number was 1202 so yes it has fallen but relative to the overall market and also take into consideration lack of financing incentives on this car I would say sales are pretty good

This sales number reflects pent up demand.

We should see these numbers drop off significantly next month.
I'm holding out for financing incentives on this beauty and a Euro delivery
in July.
