BMW US: but no one ever bought them?

True that the market for Touring models is smaller here but at least for me, it was the lack of engine options offered by BMW that dissuaded me. The F81 is a beautiful Touring body and with an M Sport kit looked even better but it only came as a 328. I have no idea how many M340ix Touring BMW would sell if they imported them here but I can say at least one - to me. Maybe 6 more based on some of the posts in this thread. 
Somehow Audi has managed to keep bringing us the Avant body in the A4 Avant and then the A4 allroad to present day and now, the A6 allroad and mighty RS6. |
Add one more to the total...I would have bought the touring rather than my M340xdrive sedan, if it was available. And the only Audi's I would ever consider are the RS4 or RS6 Avant. Had a WRX Wagon rather than the sedan in an earlier life too. Can't buy what isn't available though.
