I like it when people actually love their car rather than swap it for another car every two years (before they have to spend anything on maintenance)

Such a great review! I agree with him when he describes BMW these days as volume-driven and tech-driven. This is why I like Doug, he gets straight to the point.

But sometimes he says stuff that's inaccurate/highly opinionated. He claimed BMWs of today have a lesser focus on interior material and build quality which is absolutely false. BMW interiors from the E46/E39 era were great for their time but are notorious for falling apart over time. Today's interiors are more posh.
