Bottom line is BMW is losing the driving and ownership experience game, which defined the brand but now is being replicated or perfected by the competition instead or just falling behind in terms of fit/finish. Not only this comparo test but there are about a dozen out of Europe and the US saying the same thing.

. On top of that it's the lightest and the best looking car as well .

It won the power train and chassis category as well as the fun to drive category . If you look at the BS scoring breakdown it loses bc of trunk space , back seat space , and price . Fit and finish was 10/10 . So in other words it delivered the best driving experience yet still lost this comparison . I guess you'd rather have the ultimate poser machine that wins bullshit comparisons and is boring to drive like an AWD audi anything . ( the R8 being the only exception )
