The answer to "who cares" is in your response:

"super low volume, high $$$ vehicle[s]"
"high-volume affordable vehicles like the new 2 series"
"3 & 4 M series is right behind in design concerns"

If the BMW gross-design stick were only hitting a niche X5, then no problem ... but BMW is shitting up just about everything, as you noted.

I'd add:

✘ New X3/4M design looks like a hipster moustache / prius look



And the new 2er performance parts looks is ....





So, if it were just the X5 SE then you're right; but it's not, and the X5 was the last bastion of good design left, thus seeing it going down the same poop smear design path as everything else ...

Well, we all should care.
