its marketing to the stupid/uninformed (sadly it works very well)
though i do know all next gen bmw models (except 7 series) sold in china will be made in china with proper "L" chassis, even mini,
Sure about that? "L" Audis and Mercedes are visibly longer. You can see the extra few inches in the window compared to comparable models in the US for example. I don't know about BMW though, I don't really remember seeing many "L" BMWs.
