Since I can and do drive them back-back often, I can assure you that the F30 left a LOT on the table dynamically. It is bigger, more supple, better tech, arguably better looking, etc. but it is NOT the driver's car that was the E90. And no, it's not JUST the steering, it's also the handling. Those are two different things.

So, the F30 is an improved vehicle in many, many tangible ways over the E90, as expected with a newer model, but it also unfortunately gives up some things.

Maybe the LCI really got the suspension right because for the first month of my 340i ownership I split time with my family's just sold e92 335. I could tell steering differences but not in handling.

I do know the pre LCI was criticized though.
