F30 335i 3 SECONDS slower than the E90 gen.
F30 335i just 0.7sec ahead of the Hyundai Genesis?
M5 & M6 get smoked by a Chevy, the SS 1LE, much less the ZL1? (Congrats to the Bow Tie crowd btw, wow!)
M5 now the HEAVIEST of the competition (C63 & S6-and it's AWD!!)!!?
It's sad to watch this company try to win the race to average.

Well said. People will call this hate. But you speak the truth.
BMW is no longer the Ultimate Driving Machine it once was. Living off the reputation of their earlier iconic cars...is waning.
