The F30 steering and handling is the universal complaint about this car. It affects the 335 more than the 328-but BOTH none the less.

The 328, the 4 cylinder in overall press, more times than not it is heralded and is the most competitive drivetrain in it's class. It came out #1 in a 7-8 car shoot out and has slayed the ATS and the new IS.

The 4 cylinder is not the problem with the F30.
I have to agree. The 4 cylinder is not an issue whatsoever. After having driven the E9x 328i and the F30 328i I would take the F30 any day of the week. It's tough for me to take any car with sporty intentions that's matched by my N55 5000lb SUV in the quarter. Unfortunately the E90 328 fails in that regard
