Not whining. Wishing to return to topic. Comply dammit. The car is weird. The aesthetic is not SERIOUS, like most BMWs, it is trying to be WHIMSICAL, and FAILING MISERABLY. We had an i3 in our shop recently... a shopping cart rolled into the liftgate... and being GLASS, it SHATTERED into a MILLION PIECES, allowing the TAILLIGHTS to DANGLE FROM THEIR WIRES (being loosely attached behind the tempered glass surface of the gate). The floor on the car is so high relative to the rocker panels, it is claustrophobic. Calling the BMW dealer for parts, it became clear they were glad to witness its extinction. Counting on one hand the number of ppl who even knew it existed in the first place.

Just talk about the ugly BMW please.

I appreciate the short answer. I am glad you finally get it: an internet forum is no place for novels. They cause drowsiness. No one wants to read ppl's comments again and again, why quote the whole thing... it just pollutes the forums.

Notice pronunciation of "Subaru" in these adverts. From now on, I am going to say it like this.

Exactly. Folded cardboard. COMPLETELY amateur greenhouse, like a 3rd grade sketch. Just... alien and offputting to the max. And don't get me started on the EV aspect. BMW used to be about visceral driving excitement. These days there is only a vestige of that past, manifested in just a paltry few configurations. EV is absotively, posolutely the direct opposite of what BMW was. A whirring, completely unengaging, boring as hell way to get around. The child that got strained through the sheets.

None needed. None owed. The secret of appealing to everyone is to let the READER decide how to interpret what they've just read. Sorry if I'm being too cerebral for you.

(*memo to self: don't rely on other ppl's sarcasm sensors. More often than not, they are non-existent.)

Isn't that the Escala? It's labeled as the Celesteek or whatev. And you are spot-on about the Blackwing.

The X1 and X3 are relatively normal looking. It's the X2 that abominates the bottom of the BMW "SAV" family.

Still ain't got no ass, I'm afraid. Hey Cadillac, I know the bustleback Seville, and YOU AIN'T NO BUSTLEBACK SEVILLE!

I knew it. The downvote wasn't thought out properly, just like other, uh... recent downvotes on a somewhat larger scale...

Here's trinacriabob exiting Amish Country with a little bit of help:

olds...PLEASE tell me you do not like that mutant experiment gone WRONG. It's laughably bad!
-
That is a pretty car, shame about it though. That's IT, I'm changing my time-honoured (pretentious spelling for trinacriabob) screen name to ocnred. Gotta stay away from any chance of being misconstrued. As far as fleeing the country, you have me confoozed with Whoopi Goldberg and Drew Dowdell, both of which were SO verklempt (Yiddish for trinacriabob) in 2016 that they vowed to leave the USA. We see how that worked out, BTW.

This has to be a joke. PUTRID!

Aww, thanks olds, for intently reading my stuff. You're AWESOME.

Is it OK if I borrow the concept? It's the looney left that invented it.

See now, I had an inkling you might be inbred. The symptoms are there, but I could not put my finger on it. Thanks for the confirmation.
