Quote from that recent C&D article, where the 335 lost to the Lexus IS350:

"Compared with the other two cars here, the BMW feels immense and slow-witted."

Sad. I love my car, but let's not become BMW apologists here...

More:

"Few can fathom that sort of unwavering discipline. BMW maintained such a regimen for years, and it has shown in the continued excellence of its cars. But after we cycled through the cars on our Hill Country loop, the question on everybody’s mind was one vocalized by technical editor K.C. Colwell: “Is it possible that the BMW has the worst steering here?” With the F30, BMW wavered. This is the first 3-series that feels less thoroughly engineered than its competition. It’s competent, it’s spacious, it’s comfortable; but in comparison with other cars in its segment, the 3-series is undercooked."
