BMW does make fine cars...

no one is arguing that. I'm just not pleased with the price (IE 42K for a loaded 3 sedan? I'd rather have the bigger 9-5Aero...wouldn't you?). Of course when you make a good product that is very popular, you can pretty much name your own price. A lot of BMW owners will argue (according to the BMW board) that a base 3 sedan is not really a BMW. I think that is crap, but apparently there is a HUGE difference in the way a base 3 and a well optioned 3 drive and handle. I don't know whether that is true or not, but that's what I've heard. If SAAB's sticker prices were more realistic, SAAB would do better against BMW. If you'll notice there are a lot of potential buyers that post on this board that compare SAAB sticker prices against the other car. We all know the SAAB sticker prices are far from actual prices.
