BMW has plans to introduce more and more X-Boxes (or is that X-$hit-boxes) in the coming years. Have they figured that they screwed up the car line so badly with electronic gizmos and Bangled designs, that this is a whole new froniter to screw up???

Their credibility is gone. The M5, M6 and sadly the M3 are failures. Just take a look at the larger dealerships out there. They have PLENTY of inventory of M's. Resale on the M5 & M6 have tanked and barely broken in M3's are now CPO's.

While all BMW's still hold closely the motto of "the ultimate driving machine" I believe they can no longer see the road where they are driving to.
