I could go on but I have no respect for a company that treats its customers as lab rats. I don't see BMW as terribly different, although their engines seem to hold up. Not so the auto trans.

Again, I love the engineering, handling, performance and looks of the Box. I hate that the company seems to be indifferent to their cars breaking and attendant costs.

IMHO.
