I do agree with this. The differences aren’t always easy to articulate, but they are palatable. To go from a Mustang coupe to an ///M4, for example, feels worlds apart……..at least to me. Online it would seem the “cross shopping” is more prevalent, but I don’t get that same sense when I talk to people in the real world. I think rather than a brand allegiance issue, it truly comes down to the experience someone is seeking. Someone looking for a more refined performance car with certain luxury attributes isn’t typically looking at a Mustang, Camaro, etc., thus, they wouldn’t be cross shopping something from BMW, Mercedes, etc. with Ford, Chevy, etc. To me, it’s the equivalent of saying somebody looking at a 911 is also looking at a Zupra.
