Maybe I'm in a bad mood today.
But.
The gross exaggeration of poor German reliability on this forum is ridiculous. As is the immediate assumption that the person purchasing must only be concerned about the badge.
Jesus, I'm by no means suggesting that picking up an eight year old 7 series is a good idea but if the car is new or CPO I'm a little confused to what the issue it. I know a lot of guys (including a bunch on this forum) who have German cars out of warranty and it's fine.
For sure the German reliability is no Toyota - but now owning a German car I can certainly understand the trade off. For example, the ML350 is in a different ballpark in comparison to the MDX - both in terms of tangible and intangible items.
As for this 2 series, yeah it's not beautiful by any means but as Tortoise said show me any small sedan that looks beautiful. They all look pretty homely IMO.
Gather 'round, kids, an old man is whinging!
