John, I do not want to get on my high horse here, your comments have as much use as that of BMW car salesman criticizing a Mercedes Benz and vice versa. Not too long ago, you were here pushing NHT 'new' old technology on this board and now you are criticizing a competitor's use of certain materials and choice of crossovers. Did you miss the fact that 'Kevlar' is simply a marketing name for a composite material, it actual composition is not cast in stone, i.e. subject to improvements. All your comments on crossovers and materials so far are merely suggestive, you have not backed your comments with anything.Maybe over there in North America, the CDM has higher resale value, but over in the UK and in Europe, it seems that the CDM series has been underperforming for a while, and it is somewhat unsurprising that it was the first series to be replaced. Whilst at it, if the public is buying B&Ws, as you say why change a successful recipe, I thought it is all about listening, folks are listening and buying B&Ws ;).
The truth is what is true, not what you believe.
