Is the BMW 7-series making a comeback?










NOT!



















BMW
 
Note: 7-series sales down over 13% from 2002.

 
Auto Spies perspective: The Spies see a concerning trend here with the 7-series. In our opinion, this shouldn’t be happening to a vehicle that has only been out for a little over a year. We know the economy is not the greatest, but that should not hurt the 7 as much as it has. Why is that good for you? Because a killer lease program is probably just around the corner to turn this sales slide around.
