What's up with the BMW badge on the C pillar. Isn't that where Buick places theirs? Yuck.

I just find it funny that slapping a BMW badge on what's effectively a MINI makes it okay, but more capable Subie, VW or Ford are a bridge too far. |

I was referring to the Mercedes. None of the cars you mentioned are built with any real quality or fit and finish. |

Mercedes quality has gone to shit if you ask me, at least in the C class wagon I just rented in Germany. The dashboard was a complete joke and the seats were terrible. Plus it was a dog on the autobahn.

Overall I like what I see here in the X2. Comparing it to a Macan isn't really fair as the price differential is likely to be fairly substantial. Not a fan of the new front drive platform, as many here seem to agree on, but then again I haven't driven one.

Roundel has been on C-pillar in the past. See BMW E9 CSL. But, I don't like it on the X2.

Personally I’d rather see a Panamera junior than a Macan junior, I’d love Porsche to build a medium sized 4 door car, as opposed to an SUV!! |

You even confused yourself because you said of the vehicle you called the X2 M vs. the GLA45 - "I'd forecast the cars will be pretty comparable.". That's only true if you also think, for example, an X3 M40i and GLC63 are "pretty comparable". However, I am pretty sure you know they are not. |
