I just bought a R & T with the poll for the best car of 2005. Not a single BMW among the choices, but a Buick Lacrosse and a Ford Five Hundred!!!!!!!!

If you see this and all the bad reviews BMW has been getting in the press since the new 7 came out, journalists must really hate BMW.

Dooes BMW not cater the right food when they invite journalists? Does BMW not brownnose enough? The salesnumbers obviously speek a different language!

The reason is, that the 7 is not a 2005 car, nor are the 6 or the 5 2005 cars...

I don't know what a Buick Lacrosse is but isn't the new Ford Five Hundred a European Mondeo? I have driven those in the UK and they aren't too bad. Don't know if I would ever buy one but it seemd alright at least as rental cars go.
