Plus bean-counters took over around the 2000's. For the most part, bmw just isn't what it used to be. The E46 M3 was considered good and the new M2 has good reviews as far as new test drives, but other than those, bmw seems to have lost it's overall 'drivers car' image. (I don't know how M2 reliability will be in the long run.)
I've read nothing but but rave reviews on the new M3, M4, M5 and M8. I'm looking at buying one of those and have done a lot of research and the only negative thing I have found is some people don't like the grilles on the M3s and M4s, drive wise everyone loves them.
