I have only driven BMWs for the past 18 years, always thought they were the best in their class design wise, now not so much. They are either too much or not enough. Apart from the M5, X5 I wouldn't buy any BMW.
based on your description.. are there any coupes that you like? that don't have "short asses" ?

i personally choose the M240i because it has a long hood, and an aggressively sloped back window... reminds me of early mustangs, plymouth baracuda, and even the first Ford mavericks
