Only thing left to determine is how it drives. The only saving grace for the BMW is the option of a manual or a 8-speeder for the smaller engines, and it uses a proper handbrake. But as BMW's are all sold as normal automatic's and comes with a singular crap spec in Malaysia (no such thing as the F30 M-Sport here)...the gap is even smaller

having said that.... I almost converted into a Volvo S60/V60 because its as well equipped as a 7 series in malaysia.
No Proton?

I think the BMW interior is fine now. We have a 2010 IS and the 3 series interior is every bit as good.

But I am not as opposed to the look of the new IS as others are. At least they're doing something different.
