Way to be on a list with the Ford Edsel....

The 2002 was plagued for sure. BMW bought back a bunch of those bad boys not to lemon them.

you might want to check the jd power reliability rankings before you make a statement like that.... just a thought.

I might be wrong but I’m sure that I’ll never purchase any car made by the three American companies.

Horse shit.. They are not bashing the 7 series. They are bashing the idrive. The 7 series, believe you me, is a very, very good car.

The idrive, now that I've had the car for a few weeks, it really doesn't bother me. No, I don't love it. But nor do I hate it as much as I thought I might. To be honest, I don't really use it that much. Both radio and climate controls exist elsewhere on the car. But the idrive is certainly not enough of a downside to label it one of the 50 worst vehicles of all time.

Don't believe me? Lets go for a ride, then tell me it belongs in the same category as a Delorean..
