Other intriguing features is the outstanding levels of being comfortable while driving and be driven in one, the engine power and handling of the vehicle
DESIRE
                Over the years BMW has built this luxurious brand status and associated itself with an upper scale social class, therefore people may desire the car because of its features and capabilities, but they desire the title that comes with is by using BMW vehicles as a statement to display high income or being financially well off because the typical person who has a BMW is one of the two if not both.
Action

Social Media
