Here's my take. Previous E90 328i owner. Traded it for a new 2015 335i M Sport a few weeks ago. Sad about the old one
but so excited for the new.
The old E90 steering was the best steering system I've ever had, save,
maybe, an '89 Acura Integra that was also really special. I was a little disappointed in the f30. But, thinking about that old Integra, it all makes sense. It's easy to long for the old days. The E90 was more direct and communicative. But not by much. Mostly it's just
different . As I get used to the F30 I realize that it is still a BMW. Accurate, communicative, excellent. Do I miss the old rattle trap but practically telepathic Integra? Yes. Do I miss the E90? Yes. Will I miss the F30 when I part with it. Surely.
