My Ride: Blah blahblah blahblah meh.
If I had to choose between getting an f10 or a grand coupe I would choose the grand coupe with no hesitation unless the f10 was an M5 then well.. You know my answer.

Maybe BMW should get rid of half of it's line-up instead of constantly adding superfluous vehicles in a never-ending war with MB. Then, they could get back to to the core values that attracted us to the marque in the first place. Of course, BMW is greedy for more market share, which will ultimately be manufactured and assembled more cheaply and certainly less well in China. BMW is also becoming soft in its lust for market share in order to satisfy the average computer consumer more interested in texting than driving. Why else would BMW load up their product with warning devices and cameras which would be unnecessary if drivers merely looked out their windows and used their mirrors for the dangers outside. Minimizing rather than maximizing blind spots in their designs might also not be a bad idea. The vehicles are fatter, plusher and heavier, filled with excessive and distracting electronics. Too bad, really.
