I'm not sure how I feel about it, but I'm definitely a fan of the trickle down effect of some of the technology that gets put into the 7-series and 6-series. I think the main downside is that the brand will not hold its value as well, especially if the entry-level segments aren't put together well. Think Cadillac in its first version of the CTS, Mercedes with the C-Class, and Land Rover with the Freelander.</p>FredricWed, 31 Jan 2007 16:23:00 -0000http://ybpguide.com/2007/01/18/new-bmw-set-to-hit-us-shores/#comment-2413680<p>That's odd. BMW is making adjustments to keep up with VW? Does that seem backwards to anyone else???</p>JCWed, 31 Jan 2007 15:42:00 -0000http://ybpguide.com/2007/01/18/new-bmw-set-to-hit-us-shores/#comment-2413681<p>not a fan of this series. i still like the 3 and 5 series.</p>Kimberly MichelleThu, 18 Jan 2007 04:46:00 -0000
