I'm not surprised at this response. This is, after all, an enthusiast's forum.

But what's news here is that a) G01 _was_ recommended and b) CR has a database going back years and claims data on 500K subscribers' vehicles, making it a statistical force in reliability data.

Just because we like BMW's doesn't mean that CR's data doesn't apply to our cars. On the contrary, we should be demanding that BMW produce reliable as well as fun cars.
