Wow.. you know things are off the rails when you dismiss valid criticisms.


"First thing and this is for me the most important thing; you can drive fast and completely relaxed. You don't feel how fast you are."

I could not feel more different than this statement. I get this for the 5er but the 3? Especially for the sporty variants, isn't the whole idea to feel engaged and feel like you're moving fast? Otherwise we just keep throwing more hp and more tire at these cars and they're no fun at all despite being quick. Isn't feeling something the whole damn point?? Certainly conflicts with the back breaking suspension on the M branded models.

By moving to a cheaper car that sells better, I am sure they will do quite well in revenue. But how long can they rest on a name that was established by driving feel? At some point there isn't really an advantage of buying a BMW vs other cheaper brand with similar level of cartoonish overstyling. Just save a few bucks and drive an Optima.
