fuel prices vs. vehicle rollout

I can't help but think, the price increase in fuel is going to have a tremendous effect on the luxury and sports car market.
- I'm pretty sure, though don't know the numbers, this is happening already.

So my question is, will BMW rollout the "is" model of the X5?
Will Porsche rollout a faster Cayenne?
Will Audi still rollout the Q5?

What about the new 7 series? At 13mpg, might buyers opt for the Lexus hybrid instead?

What do you think? Have we seen an end to manufacturers releasing BIG ENGINE *new vehicles ?

What's going to happen with the car market other than the increase in sale of hybrids?
