So that means....someone finally built a 3 series killer?
I’ve heard that phrase for so long I’d be so happy if it finally happened, I wouldn’t even care if it had a Suzuki badge lol

And the M3 lost to the C63 and the ATS-V.
It took long enough, but it appears the compact luxury king has fallen.

Depending on the magazine, the 3 series has been losing to everybody lately from Lexus to Cadillac

It was only a matter of time before the 3 series lost its crown. The F30 just became too bloated. BMW lost its focus on driving dynamics above all else to imitate the failed American way of “more is better”. 3600 lbs for a “sports” sedan? That is the weight of a Lincoln Town Car. Why do you think their slogan of the ultimate driving machine is now only used by marketers. It used to be an accurate term back in the e46 and even e90 days.

When I first saw photos of the XE, I was underwhelmed and disappointed that the maker of such an incredible streak of gorgeous cars was stuck in a whole new rut.
Seeing the XE next to the 3er changes my mind completely. In context, it really is a beautiful car. And I’m so glad that more than the Brits think it's better.
