ParticipantFLU. Could not agree with you more. The current BMW designs are not for me. My current one is the prior line S-54 M Roadster (’01), not the Z4 M version.
It is an RS4. We have a couple Audi’s now. I had been a BMW and Benz owner for so many years and never looked at Audi. Now I think they lead the German pack in design and overall function IMHO. But both my RS4 and S54 are sticks and I have to admit that I am too old or lazy now to drive a stick. I went to Aston Martin’s driving school a few years ago in England and drove a paddle shift DB9. A paddle shift car of some sort will be my next one. After I buy a house that is.

ParticipantFLU. Now wait a minute. Having owned 7 BMW’s, including 3 M cars, I can say that it is true that BMW is the ultimate driving machine. I even still have an M car in my stable.
So I can say without hesitation, that it is absolutely true that BMW is the ultimate driving machine. Well, except for my uberpowered Audi. Oh, yea, except for that AMG Mercedes I had. Other than that, yes it is the ultimate driving machine.

ParticipantBecause the bailout rewards irresponsible and unreasonable behavior. Because it rewards people for living beyond their means. And because it punishes those who were financially responsible and live within their means in that those folks get nothing. From the governments perspective, they need nothing because the government does not reward smart choices.
Heck, I know somebody today who is about to buy a home with 100% financing. They even want the developer to pay their closing costs because the have absolutely no cash. Why shouldn’t they, the government will bail them out if they get into trouble. Heck, it is basically free rent. Way to incentivize folks uncle Sam.
Don’t forget the bailout is more of a banking system mitigation, and it was those banks that loaned all that money to people who had no business borrowing it.
Our government rewards stupid choices. It is the American way. Lots of government programs are stupid choice social welfare programs.
