bmw did not make it but bmw 3 and 5 are produced in china in the same factory. This factory probably is large and makes cars for other brands to or it could be a joint venture. The bmw logo is not on it so technical its not a bmw

WOW

Im here in Hong Kong and I havent seen anything like it on the road. Must be marketed in mainland China PRC. I wonder if it's a hybrid car by BMW's chinese joint venture partner Brilliance China Automotive. This is the company that assembles 3 and 5 series autos in China for the local chinese market (not yet exported).

Cheers.

The M1 is being sold in germany this year. The public thinks its just a matter of time for the M2 to be sold.

Oh wow, didnt even know that, they sure move quickly to launch overseas But I think the BMW brand 3/5 series are still for the local market only.
