Not sure that I buy that.
First, this "Mini Z" is a FWD hot hatch for China.
Second, the economy's been crap for a long time. People have been expecting the death of performance cars for a while, but it hasn't happened. Hell, the government tried to tell us that we all wanted electric vehicles. Well, they're on the market, and they're not selling well.
Third, used vehicles are available, public transportation is available, and people with jobs still want cars because they give them independence.
