Im a bmw enthusiast and like almost all their designs from the 60s 2002 to the latest E46 body but what theyve done to the 5 and 7 is a disgrace. The team must have smoked some really good crack before they badged those.

If you're a BMW fan, you've undoubtedly seen the web page they have set aside for the M cars that have blown up.

There's about a hundred testimonials there, apparently one of BMWs nasty little secrets they want to keep in the closet.

LOL change those headlights and grille a little bit and you can see a Honda Accord

I have noticed over the years that just about EVERY NEW CAR looks alike. And the only differences are the makes and the damn prices.

example: Porche 944 $60,000.00 ( approx.)
opposed to:Toyota MR2:$30,000.00 (approx.)
My opinon: all a Porche is,is an OVER PRICED Toyota MR2

I am so glad that I own a GM. At least they have changed some of body styles in the past. As well as FORD!

I don't think he was laughing at you. He was laughing at Mike T's comment, because Mr P. loves those little kraut wagons.

Ya...they buy Korean auto makers out and slap Chevy symbols on them...VOILA....look what we designed!!!

If it ain't an SUV....GM could give a shit anymore.

I don't know you well enough to laugh "at you", so I'll just laugh "with" you.
