The 3 Series in not more sporty than Camry? No, the sky is still blue.

No they are not. The X5 is sportier driving than Cadillac and Lexus.

C&D appears to be the only publication that puts BMWs behind everything else. And their banner ads that promote their "ranking's" has always a picture of a BMW.

I'm not debating whether their views of BMW are accurate, because they're not. It's not possible that they're the only accurate ones in the entire world, and excuse me, it's not accurate that every BMW is worse than any Kia and Hyundai in their respective classes.

So, their BMW "opinion" is a complete outlier, which is -according to the science of statistics- proof that they're wrong. And based on their ads, it looks like it's targeted just to attack BMW.

That's why the title of the thread says "What's going on?". Because there should be some dispute, or some problem between C&D and BMW.
