I guess the key things I find annoying about BMW's most recent marketing decisions are as follows:

Clumping desirable options like Xenon lights together with expensive packages.

Offering some models with limited drivetrain choices, such as AWD + four cylinder + automatic + sunroof only on the 3 series wagons sold here or automatic only for the new 4 series convertibles.

Not bringing over cool models such as 1 series hatch w/diesel, etc.

Waiting too long to bring out models that enthusiasts are clamoring for, such as the 2 series GC, M2, others.

Increased use of EPS, mandatory I-drive, and other technologies I don't want.

There are other gripes, but I've lost interest...
