People tend to choose a product or brand that is congruent with them, whether it is from the symbolic dimension or functional dimension. the objective of this thesis research is to analyze the impact of symbolic image congruity and functional image congruity on the consumers brand preference, in this case, MINI Indonesia. The impact of consumers perceived symbolic image congruity on the perceived functional image congruity would also be analyzed in this study. the secondary and primary data are used in quantitative approach, gathered by using online questionnaire to the respondent who has a relation with the MINI brand, including the car owner and also fans of the brand.
