Pretty embarrased to be a BMW fan at times like this.

Not because of the 2AT - that's just a bit frumpy looking... no, it's because of the self-important, 'murica-centric, narrow-minded bunch of opinions I'm reading on this site.

I don't mind if people don't like it, personally I'm not a big fan - but then I'm not the target demographic, however some people are spewing some real reactionary knee-jerk BS at the moment... not just here, but on other forums too. I don't like Blue Cheese sauce, but I don't go around swearing that it's pointless and I'll never eat in a steak house that serves it ever again.. I'll just not order it.

I think that calling it the 2 series is a mistake driven by the marketing department, but other than that, it is what it is. Don't like it, don't buy it. People didn't like the X5, people thought the 1 series would cheapen the brand, but then people also thought the world was flat and camera's would steal their souls.
