Same feeling here. For the first time since 1996 am not going to be getting the new model when it comes out. I went to auto-show and with all the cars around you get the feeling BMW slowly becoming boring Mercedes. The one I liked so much (650 / M6 Gran Coupe) is out of reach. The rest of the line feels so so. Doesn't tag at you like before. Too much evolution and not enough revolution. BMW sales are going to the moon, but they are doing that by having a gazzilion models and not the same exceptional vehicles. In the end BMW will dilute itself as a brand. They are everywhere these days.

Now the new Range Rover Sport Wow!! I want one now.
