After seeing the decline in standards in the X5 and X lineup i would seriously advise reducing the range of cars that BMW builds in the USA.

Was stuck behind the latest model X3 yesterday, might as well have been behind a Honda Pilot, you could see well past the rear bumper into the rear silencer box assembly, and it was a bog standard shape, like what you would find on a Kia.

These were criticisms i used to level at the Non-German manufacturers about 5 years ago, now to my despair, BMW are going down the same cost cutting measures hoping the clients are too stupid to notice
