I think that is where I am with the reviews, they wont make me change my car choice and I hope it's a wake up call for BMW to really improve the F30 for the LCI.

I doubt BMW is getting any wake up call. They are selling a lot of 3 series cars, most of them no line base models which says something in and itself, and their sales numbers are quite impressive. They're going to put EPS in the M3/4 as Porsche has done in their cars though apparently Porsche has done a better job with it. Years ago the mags said the Infiniti G was better than the E90 and then they said the G's engine was harsh above 4000 rpm which it is IMO. If the 3 series has moved on to be the new 5 as some have said then I'm glad for it. They're living up to my expectations.
