Well, I must disagree. The steering is a bit too light and it lacks same precision and sharpness as BMW 3. Some plastics at the top of the console are of A-class quality rather than E-class. The 5-gear auto keeps engine at too low revs when you cruise and you have to wind it up with the tip-tronic option if you do not like to hear the engine suffocating and vibrating.

The engine as for the one with piezoelectric injectors is too noisy and is not any quieter than older BMW 320d.
