they have to find nits to pick that arent going to piss off BMW PR and marketing, because remember, "autojournalists" are like 95% bought and paid for by the OEMs. some PR teams even give them "safe targets" to pick on.
"we know the styling is out there, comment on it, its subjective. we are fine discouraging manual sales- you can say its rubbery, but only relatively. the CF seats being overly aggressive will appeal to some! but dont you DARE mention the buttons or weight. that may actually impact sales."
