80 Percent Of BMW 1-Series Owners Think Their Car Is Front-Wheel Drive
Any enthusiast would almost instantly recognize whether a car is front, rear or all-wheel drive once they hop behind the wheel but according to a survey run by BMW, most new car buyers are clueless on the issue.Speaking to analysts following the release of BMW?s 2009 financial results last week, CEO Norbert Reithofer revealed that 80 percent of 1-series owners believe they are driving a front-wheel drive car.
Reithofer explained that he is not worried about adding a front-wheel drive model to BMW?s lineup, but he did admit that the survey results on the 1-series came as ?quite a surprise? to the automaker.

Some say the best anti-theft device you can get for the North American market is a clutch pedal.
