And then BMW will do a 2yr refresh and everybody'll be screaming, "resale value, how can BMW do this to us ... wah wah wah." History is destined to repeat itself.

Why? Because free speech is free thought. Personally, I've never been offended by a stereotype or generalization that doesn't actually apply to me, even if it's aimed at a group that I supposedly belong to - any why should I be? Granted, there aren't very many that do. Besides, have you seen the E60 M5 review? Hilarious. Top Gear is a well produced, entertaining show with entertaining hosts. Part of the charm is the fact that they seem to speak their minds - whether you agree with what they say or not, you should be able to appreciate and respect that. |

By the way, I saw the E90 episode on Top Gear - and I think they're spot on. Brilliant machine - but it has no imagination and doesn't really stir the senses from an aesthetic point of view. But it's certainly not ugly.
The Z4 Coupe, on the other hand, is exciting. Anyway, "lump of car" is a good description, albeit a bit harsh - they pointed out how small the wheels look, which is an important thing to note. I saw an E46 with the E90 325 non-sport 16s, and it looked just fine! But the E90 with the same wheels looks awfully bulky and non-descript. |

Jeremy Clarkson is to BMW what Simon Cowell is to American Idol.
Then again, a lot of other auto reviews are prepaid endorsements sponsored by carmakers. |
