I still love my (garaged for the moment) year one of the one.
Yes, I do think BMW is stretching the brand thin, but it is progress and if it's a good car, it's a good car. They day that they become cheaper because of demand is the day I will lose faith. Until then, the M235i is exactly what I hoped for (besides the name) kept the sexy rear and updated the front. The M4 to me is gorgeous and I'm all about boosted fuel efficient sports cars. I came from turbo hondas. 300hp and 28mpg is heaven. I look forward to the future with BMW.

Well said! That's hilarious! I'm surprised someone didn't come up with a graphic of a BMW cheerios box.

HI. It was at the Fields on OBT. It was a corporate car, I think they were bringing it around to all the dealers. In 6 weeks that car will be at every dealer and you'll see it on the road! Hell...in 5 months there will be pre-owned ones here-and-there.

A 40-year-old friend of mine at work was shocked to learn that my 3-series was rear-wheel drive. He said "I thought ALL cars were front-wheel-drive!". [/QUOTE]
And a stupid consumer is the easiest one to fleece. Why not sell him a Cheerios box with a Roundel? |

I'm sure BMW is making a lot of money on these X3, X5, X6...etc etc etc but I'm not a fan. BUT, if you live in Michigan or Wisconsin I can't say I'd say no to a nice X5 to fight the snow. But here in Florida, I literally see little reason to buy any "X" vehicle....but that's me. PLEASE no comments about how you can get a 3rd row and haul like 8 people....I don't want to get nauseated. As for your coworker....I literally have no words. Must not be the sharpest individual. Maybe he thinks the world is flat and babies come from storks.

I tend to agree about the X-series - they have their uses, but the BMW "xi" models are pretty capable in the snow. So much of the general population nowadays has allowed the marketing guys to convince them they need to drive a 3-ton truck instead of the family sedan that so many of us grew up with. And regarding the X6...it brings to mind another horribly ugly car - remember the AMC Pacer of the 1970s?

BMW M has made a lot of good cars. But BMW Motorsport used to make great cars. Now, cars like the 1M, F10 M5, X5M & X6M are more like AMG products than products made by BMW Motorsport like the e30 m3 and M1. After decades of wanting to be like Mercedes, now BMW wants to be like Audi and so we have a new numbering system and M performance cars. I guess this is 'progress' to most people... I can't wait for the heated is-the-M235i-a-real M-car discussions! To me 1991 was the last year for a real M-car.
