This is all false.

Actually, BMW has less models and variations than competition. So if there is a problem about models and variations, BMW needs to come up with more. Poor design is a personal thing, but I think the poor design era was E90 era, now it’s better but BMW design needs to be more distinctive. Hopefully G30 will get 7 series grills at some point, and 4 series will get a distinct design as well, and that will make BMW design more distinct and special.
Reliability has been getting better and better over the years. For instance, F30 was more reliable than E90, and E90 was more reliable than E46.
And where is better design and value?
