Not as easily as those who don't have BMW's and have a gripe to share.
I welcome anyone to highlight where my bias is showing. I have and still do discuss my cars weaknesses at length. In fact - for my first GM car - a C7Z I helped to get GM to "fix" their heat soak issue (they didn't) and took major flaming from the extremely devout Corvette community for almost a year - until they saw the facts (and class action lawsuits) for what it was. The C7 platform in general - under-performed and is only now - through modding (and maybe the C7 ZR1) - starting to show its potential almost 5 years later. That is the way it goes sometimes with the cars we buy.
Me getting a BMW - after my last E63S - holds no brand loyalty. Right now it is the superior performing car. Not by much - but it is - straight line and definitely on a road course. Most tests have confirmed this. I will likely near never road course my car - but it doesn't change that fact. They are both solid performers and have insane performance for what they are; luxury GT cruisers.
