Not redundant complaining but actual opinions of the vehicle.

That's what the forum is for...

Now I do agree that when these were designed (2002-04) Russia and other parts of the world were just beginning their love of SUV's and especially the the X5 etc. Much like Asia started falling for Bimmers back in 1998 and then all of a sudden the E60 and E90 ended up with Asian design influences for the sake of new profits in a new market. Coincidence? No.
And now both of these vehicles are right up the alley of what Russian mob bosses and the young Moscow elite both would like and crave.
Coincidence? No. Smart for BMW? Yes.

But is either car attractive the way Bimmers have been always been traditionally up to and including the new Z4?

No.
