Chicago Autoshow

Who thought the BMW display was disappointing...... well sucked. It was e-drive only. It was a ghost town compared to all other comparable manufacturers displayed.

I understand that they want consumers to know they build electric/hybrid cars but that's not all they manufacture. There were no M cars on display, no 2 series, no 4 series, no 6 series. The 5 series was just refreshed and only one car was on the floor. Very disappointing.

Awful. Just awful. Especially compared to last year when they had an entire M section including a M4 GTS and a M2.

Was pathetic. Merc had all the AMGs and Audi had all the S cars. BMW rep, "Everyone knows us for our M cars already.". My response, yeah...Exactly my point.

I hadn't purchased mine yet and wanted to deep dive in the M4 with wife and kids.

Is this what I have to look forward to at the NY Auto show? Sounds shitty. Wife and I signed up for the BMW Car Club member early access on the 1st Saturday. Maybe I should cancel. I couldn't give 2 shits about electric cars.

I am not sure if New York will be different or not. It is pretty sad when you spend more time at the mini exhibit than BMW. My kids wanted nothing to do with it.

Very disappointing. Last year was great. M4 GTS, M2, Etc Etc.... Sounds like I'll be spending more time with Porsche and Audi at this years show. BMW better be careful.

Your sig made my wife and I

Condoms prevent minivans is classic!
