BMW's have all those things except I suppose some would consider the manual very average, but it's been like that for forever so I'm not sure what you're trying to get at. RWD, 50:50 wd, the 2 series is small, f22 and f30 chassis are great, and have the lowest weight in their classes.
Yeah, I really hope they keep those features and not let the FWD creep into the 2 series.

I think the new Jag XE is supposedly a lot lighter than the F30, remains to be seen if it can out perform the BMW as no one has driven it yet.
