When will the M-Division learn that you can't polish a turd.
Really? Why bother posting such drivel? When I see posts like this I just think either you've been at the wine or know nothing about cars.

king ugly. But not liking the looks is your right but calling it a "turd" is ludicrous and makes you look silly IMO.

Well I guess you do drive a BMW, so it had to be expected. Having had 3 beemers in the past, I can honestly say that they rattled like a good 'un. My new 330ci went back in twice in the first week for rattles. My year-old M3 was back in within a couple of weeks to have the dashboard cover out and all the heater linakges replaced because of rattles, along with the centre console, parcel shelf, door cards, and several speakers. But they were good looking cars, so I tolerated the build quality. Now the good looks have gone, there was nothing to make me buy one. Yes, the engines are still the market leaders, but it stops there.
The fit may be better than an XF, but the XF finish is way better than modern Audis and BMWs, and is a much nicer place to be. I chose the XF as I'm just bored of the ugly German marques, and the XF is IMO one of the best looking cars on the road.
It'll probably happen to you one day too once you lose your rose-tints, but turds the beemers remains.

I'm sorry but the F10 might be good looking if your metric starts and ends at visually acceptable... but that is as far as it goes for me.
Random VW's and Fords and stuff catch my eye more often than any F10 BMW ever will.

BMW make some munters but the F10 isn't one of them. Mark my words, in 10-15 years time everyone will be raving about the subtle, elegant F10 in the same way they do about the E39 now through their rose-tinted glasses.

Maybe a decade of 'progress' has changed things a bit now? I think every BMW you can get went from solid NA motors to high pressure injection and turbos == fail.
Dave
But strangely I've done over 250,000 miles in 6 BMW's since 2004 and never had an issue with 155,000 of those miles in 2.0d's that never missed a beat (and they got thrashed).Dave
Those that have issues tend to be the noisy minority in my experience.
