This is the part I'm most curious about! It's why I want the detailed data...
If I had to bet, nope, western buyers aren't gonna stick with blue & white deformed-snout tabbys and BMW will see western sales declines across all models featuring the malformed snout. (and we'll be hearing it's covid's fault for the next decade.)
BUT I think it'll take at least a year to become clear in the data since lots of people are willing to adopt a deformed blue & white tabby once, but just won't have the emotional energy to do it a second time.
Though given BMW's penchant for inflating their sales numbers, we may never be able to tell - more likely we'll have to watch what they do vs listen to what they're saying.
