BMW is now as disposable as a bic lighter. They went from a reputation as a car or motorcycle that could run forever, to something no one in their right mind would buy used. It's now like buying a luxury handbag. Last seasons model is unfashionable and it would fall apart on you anyway.
They are still expensive but the quality of everything other than the stand mixers is garbage. One example is, my father gifted me a 100 dollar blender that his boss used once for a party and didn't want any more. I got less than one use out of it. The plastic/rubber tabs that couple the motor to the blades had sheered off. I wanted to make a smoothie and it couldn't even blend ice the first time I've used it. After telling people about it is when I started learning how the whole brand went to crap.
So may solid products have gone through the crappening like Kitchen Aid, Schwinn, Sears, BMW, The NFL, and The Nightly News.
No fucking kidding. I don't even know who their target market is anymore.

Definitely turned into poormobiles without character.
Do I want to know what happened to Kitchen Aid?
