When you compare these modern BMW’s to the vehicles that set the benchmarks, they are quite a bit larger and heavier. But that is why I will only ever go as high as an x3 or 3 series. Anything else feels too big to me.

One thing though: G20 is lighter than F30, and F30 is lighter than E90. So they're just larger by a few inches, not heavier. In the last decade, all BMWs have been getting lighter and lighter. But the rhetoric from pre-2010 is still alive, people think it's still happening, because you know, we have to find something to complain about.
The heaviest 3 series ever was E90. Let that sink in
