The latest issue of Hemmings "Sports & Exotics" has an editorial on how BMW has lost its way. Written by the editor, Craig Fitzgerald, the article focuses on the difference between the purely functional 1994 M-Technic, and the 2010 535 GT. Basicly, Fitzgerald says the 1994 model was built for enthusiasts, while in 2010 BMW is building cars for the doofus market.
Fitzgerald writes: "Up front it looks sort of BMW-y, but when you get around to the back, its got a big, giant lard butt that a million years on a Stairmaster wouldn't cure". Wow, how the mighty have fallen!
Here's a picture of the 535 GT - I haven't seen one "live" but from the photos I have to side with the critics who characterize it as a second generation Pontiac Aztek.
