Why are you sad/mad? Why give this drivel a second of your time?
Do an analysis of their testing methods and procedures and you'll conclude that it is all bull****.

The "they" who say that the new car smell is bad for you are pretty much
the "they" who say that meat grilled outdoors over a wood fire is bad for
you too.

Me, I'm driving the richly aroma'd new German car and eating the charcoal
grilled porterhouse (though never simultaneously.) I guess "they"'re driving the
pitiful underpowered old car and eating the steamed tofu. And maybe this means
that "they" will live 7 months longer than me.

But remember, that's 7 extra months of being their pitiful wimpy-car driving,
tofu-eating selves. (And as Denis Leary points out: that's the 7 *worst* months
of your life, too: from 86.4 to 87.)'

So you just need to keep these things in perspective.

Aren't these the same people who brought you the radioactive granite counters...?

Such crap. And I guess the alternative is a bicycle, since ALL cars use the same material.

I understand your point , but still there is difference between models among BMW lineup. I lived in Germany and I owned several vehicles there.
