However the 3 series interior is noticeably better, and having blind spot monitors and top/side view cameras is quite nice. I use the top view cameras daily for backing into spaces and pulling into garage. And if you care more about raw power, the B58 is definitely the way to go.
Pre-kids so currently have a few more years of recklessness, haha. That's along the lines of what I'm thinking as well, but I also don't track the car so I'm having an internal debate between a sportier ride versus more premium interior.

I do plan on tuning whatever car I get, so I think they'll end up at relatively similar levels still.
