1, 3, 5, 6, 7, X1, X3, X5, X6, Z4, M, CS - is it getting hot in here?

with all new and upcoming BMW models, it seems like their line-up is getting really overcrowded. or is it just me? especially with all the submodels, our 3ers are soon going to become as exclusive as corollas.

on one hand, i'm really excited to see new models rolling out of germany. however, on the other hand, the continuing recession of exclusivity isn't very pleasing. it also puts the brand that much closer to mercedes who will soon run out of letters in the alphabet.

i was also thinking about this in terms of ferrari. they have as many models as there are stars in the skies. due to their price tags, performance, brand recognition and quality, it really makes no difference for them. BMW doesn't have that kind of resume, not even close to it.

is BMW the next Ford or can it keep its good reputation with each new model appearing on the road? what do you think?
