The Access BMW or whatever their rental program called is going to be their downfall. Flaky consumers with their sense of entitlement and the attention span of a squirrel.
No arguments from me on that my friend. In my view it is the very circumstance and condition that you describe that kills off the success of their 2 door offerings.

By very nature, these kinds of cars have to compromise a great extend of civility and convenience and be somewhat challenging to appeal to their (small niche) target market.
