Regardless of what BMW does or doesn't do, people will always find something to complain about. BMW is meeting a need; meeting this need will allow them to remain solvent and competitive while STILL offering a fun, entertaining driving experience.
If it doesn't fit into your "no-negotiation" criteria of an automobile, there are plenty of other options.
