Those who do care about feng shui today are not BMW's demographics in China though, the traditional Chinese who actually care about feng shui isn't going to be buying a 4er if they aren't already sitting in a retirement home already.

This is for the new money in China, which is all about showing off ostentatiously. if it draws attention then they do it, look at the wealthy Chinese students today here on our shores, all drive flashy cars with the flashiest wraps, flashiest handbags, and flashiest clothes, and demands all the attention regardless if it looks good.
