Couldn't agree more. Saw the X2 in person yesterday at the Philly Auto Show. It looked awful.

As I stood back and watched others I began to wonder if BMW is purposely abandoning their roots to go after the non car culture millennialist. I can see the X2 being shopped by millennial soccer moms who only want the badge.

The direction Bmw is headed is in response to A. The decline of the enthusiastic car culture. (Sadly most men can't even change a tire, drive stick, or name five parts under the hood. And B. The realization that women are now the primary decision maker in family auto purchases.
