Interesting and detailed take on the F30 Series.
At present I drive a Mk6 GTI and the F30 has a superior fit and finish to it. It is also a more comfortable car to drive. The Mk6 is a step up from the Mk 5, so I am a little surprised by your comparison.
I drove an F30 320d M Sport with M Sport Adaptive suspension + 8 Speed transmission and quite simply felt that it was much, much better than my GTI. It was smoother, quieter, had better steering, had lighter controls and I enjoyed driving it much more. It felt frictionless. The GTI felt rough and clunky compared to the BMW. The GTI, with the adaptive dampers in 'comfort mode', was not a patch to the BMW's smoothness in 'comfort' mode.
I was so impressed, that I bought two 330d M Sports.
But as they say, ETTO.
