Car&Driver can go a little overboard on the hate but it's not unfounded. Drive any F/G-chassis BMW and you'll notice a distinct difference compared to the E-chassis cars that gave the brand its strong reputation for being the "ultimate driving machine." It's so distinct that they don't feel like they come from the same automaker.

BMW has sold out and C&D is simply calling them out on their bullshit. They aren't blind haters as they rave over the M2 and BMW's SUVs still win comparison tests (since they are the least boring in their segments).

A lot of you are in denial. Sure the competition caught up, but BMW purposely sat on their laurels and watered down their vehicles to appease the masses globally. It's a very sad fall from grace.
