I remember being active on these forums when the E90 came out ( I bought a new 320 in 2005 and was on here almost every day ). At the time , the E90 steering was criticized for not having any feel off center ( when you start turning it ). I'm sure you'll find some posts about it.



Anyway the point is that even the E90 was criticized heavily compared to the E46 ( dont' even started about the run flats ), and it seems like any new model will get criticism. I've learnt not to get too stressed about it until I drive the car.



Some criticism is valid - the first E90s had a terrible ride with the run flats , and the early F30s had much worse steering than later ( and not as good as E90 ) , but overall the 3 Series remains the standard.
