What I observe, it is not simply the model range, but specification and option 'choice' which makes buying much more confusion. Good in some ways, but does mean some actual examples leave a lot to be desired.
Take your comment on the E60, compared to I assume an F10? Your comment is honest, but a bit broad brush, what model vs. what model? I've a bit of experience where I know specification and options make so much difference. I have tried E60 models where I was not impressed at all and F10 models which I'm sure would leave you with the opposite opinion.
Even comparing models from the same range is bad enough, I believe many users don't get what they really want (or expect), simply due to specifying it poorly for their needs.
As an example we can't even get a consensus as to whether VSS is a good or bad steering system, even if it is clearly the 'sport' option.
