Now my F30 doors are light as hell, like a honda civics doors, and the car doesnt have the bank vault feeling you'd expect from a $65,000 german built luxury sedan. Actually the very first comment i got is "why are the doors so light?" lol definitely doesnt give that expensive feel...as much as a c class does at least or even the previous gen 3

the wind noise really bothers me, its so f***ing loud. My friends Chrysler 300 M was 10X quieter in terms of wind noise.
Close the windows and the roof. That helps I have heard. All joking aside.......it isn't loud.
