Nice to see the G sedan getting some good press. They did a great job on the new model.

BMW's are not for me... But I do appreciate their engineering and going the extra mile to do it right when others are just trying to cut back and save money.

You need to take what I say at face value--that is, that the new G rated tops in its class in Consumer Reports. That was all that I was saying. I have NEVER criticized Consumer Reports reviews. So, I don't know where you getting that?!?!? Also, about my statement about mags always rating BMW's as number one, I was actually referring to other car mags.

Either way, I just think it's nice that our G's are getting some nice reviews. If you don't like it, then, why are you on this forum?

We looked at a well (not overly) equipped S40 last night b/c my GF likes them, $35,000 for that little thing. No Nav, or anything?!?! I was shocked!

On a side note, I love how we all applaud the 'un-biased' results when OUR car whens an award?!?! haha. When those hated BMWs win, its always always biased.
