Bmw is even going to start making vehicles with Benz too... all is lost.

Like it or not, this ship has sailed a long time ago. For those that feel this negative about how a company markets or produces their products...it's time to pick up your chips and move on. Besides, have you seen the new Porsche Cayenne Coupe? How about some of the other high-performance SUV/SAV models from other companies? Times have changed. They will change again.
