As I said, just thought aloud... depressing thoughts...

I'm afraid I agree.
Infiniti FX and Rover are ideal poaching territory for the X6. And for every person, like myself, who thinks that BMW is watering down their image
with product like the X6, there will be those who will rejoice, like N/A BMW dealers who must be salivating at the profits they'll pile up on this thing.

Connoiseurship...the knowing ability to discern, is thought of as a term from another era.
It's been replaced by consumership- the ability to recognize which brands denote status.

I do think...well maybe hope is a better term, that the 2-coupe, is less than a year away.
