So for those who are shopping for this stuff, it will be an excellent offering. And if you like the classic BMW fare, you always have the option to buy that. Why make a stink about it..?
Agree totally, most small SUV have a certain cute appeal which, personally, I’m not a fan of... even the new Jag e Pace looks far too cute! This car looks mean & aggressive and SHOULD set the driving benchmark for its class!! If the interior quality is right up there and it drives as well as a fwd car can, then it’ll be a winner! RWD purists buy a G20 or a 2 coupe... plenty of people will want this !!
