US August - November sales:
  
Genesis: 1,177 | 1,029 | 1,121 | 1,151
GS: 1,686 | 977 | 819 | 721
M: 1,211 | 1,077 | 1,193 | 1,186

 
With numbers like that, there's more of a market for the Genesis than a few posters would care to admit.

Probably look even better by comparison if you throw in the RL.

I'd hate to say it, but the RL is a joke in terms of reaching the buyers. Without posting the actual numbers, let's just say the Genesis has already passed the YTD sales numbers of the RL (January-November) in just a few short months

5-Series is still the king here, although I suspect there was probably some super promotion going on in August; the number contrast with the other three months are glaring...

Kinda hard to ignore the whole "maintenance free" package that BMW offers. I mean...all you have to do is worry about paying the monthly note. That's up there with with a 10yr/100k mile warranty...very, very hard to ignore.
 
This may be a dumb question, but I've never really followed the RL...why is it such a poor seller???

The term 'super promotion' is a term reserved for Hyundais,Buicks, and the like - although I'm sure that many of the cars you have listed here were (and probably still are) available at better prices, it is the fact that thngs like those BMWs don't HAVE to be discounted (and don't HAVE to be cheap) to sell. This distinguishes them from the Hyundais of the world.
 Folks pay the premium for the BMWs because they want the best and couldn't really care much about any 'super promotion' it may or may not be available at. It is NOT price that sells the BMW (or many of the other cars you list). The Hyundai buyer may never understand this....

Perhaps you would care to explain then why BMW has for years massively subsidized leases in order to actually get their overpriced vehicles into customer hands? The truism has long been that only an idiot actually buys a Beemer and you certainly appear to fit the profile.

don't own one - , if you think that anybody that spends the money on those BMWs are 'idiots' then you would definitely be in the heart of the Hyundai buying demographic .

"The Hyundai buyer may never understand this...."
 
Gee, what an insulting comment. Captain, your posts are really going downhill. You used to make a little sense. But you are so totally un-informed on BMW promotional pracrtices. Now I'm beginning to wonder wonder why your fellow inmates elected you their Captain.

BMW is discounting the interest if not the purchase price: http://www.edmunds.com/incentives/RebateController?step=1#bmw
