Lately, yeah, but mainly because of their higher HP.
Let's hope quality improves to what Mercedes was until the early 1990's.
yea,90s...was BMW's time,now Benz putting alot more power in their cars
kinda what cadillac is doin for american cars....i am loving what caddie is doin now
At what?
Benz has ALWAYS been a Luxury Performance Car
BMW has ALWAYS been a Performance Luxury Car
If you want Luxury with some juice you get a benz. If you want a car with some juice that has some luxury you get a BMW. It is obvious because BMW offers manuals.

where's BMW's supercar?
AMG > M power
When McLaren was motor shopping for the F1 I am pretty sure they ended up with a BMW
They also had the M1 way back in the day. Since when do you need a "supercar" to be a top car manufacturer?
I will have to give you this. New BMWs suck for reliability. I don't own anything past 99 and will never own anything past 04 or 05 when I get a new M3 sometime soon.Don't be stupid. There is no contest here. They are not evey in the same universe with respect to service and reliability.
How are they not? Please explain.
The BMW is better where the "sports sedan" matters and not as good where it doesn't. Cup Holders(My e30 doesn't even have them at all and if you weigh more than 200 lbs you can't fit in the sports seat.) Rear Leg Room? Trunk Space?
My m3 is pretty damn good. It has 0-60 times comparable with Large American V8s. It can out handle many cars triple its price. 97 it won best handling car at any price. Beat a 355, viper, prelude SH(this won for under 20 or 25 i think) and an NSX(OMG NO WAY?!?!?!) It is a drivers race stock verse stock to a NSX.
There is a REASON mags compare new cars to M3s and 3 series. There is a reason why when lexus wanted to make a sports sedan they tried to better the 3 series... Because it is the best.
I know I come off like a douche bag and that is fine. The problem is 7/8th of you guys have never driven an M3 or a 3 series and yet you call me a nut swinger. Well drive the car like it is meant to be driven and then make a comparison. Come drive an M3 at Road Atlanta and see what the car is really about. Don't arm chair debate on the internet through here say and call me a nut swinger.

I call BS. When did the M3 "outhandle" an NSX? LOL What were the criteria? Where is the data? This is funny. Face it, the M3 is a "sports sedan" NOT a sports car.
OK. When is the next BMW day @ Road Atlanta? I would love to run that track.
Rich...Bob...Stan...?????
Haha. First off you are retarded. The m3 is a spots coupe first and foremost. It was offered for only 3 years as a sedan. So calling it a "sports sedan" is stupid. Just now they are going to have a sedan version. And if you don't think an M3 is a sports car I don't know what is wrong with you. What is the criteria for a "sports car" then?
The NSX is not all that great. It is not that fast and barely lighter(by 20 lbs) to an M3 from 99 and my car wasn't designed as "super light weight"

Scroll down. Here are some "excerpts for you"
"The M3 possesses uncanny roadgoing ability. This is the most-agile car here. The steering eagerly bites into corners and is alive with feel. "Constantly talking to my fingers," wrote Csere. It latches onto a line in corners as if on a mission from God. Webster: "Rolls gracefully into curves at a constant rate and goes right where you point it."
.... So, what's the best-handling car at any price? ...It's an eight-horn salute to the BMW M3 as "the best-handling car."
Hmmm M3 was faster in EVERY Corner. And it was actually an NSX-T. Wow 6 mphs faster in 1 corner.
There is a link to the whole article if you want to read it. Whicah car should I buy. A used M3 for 15 or a used NSX for 50.

not trying to start shit, but this is an opinionated statement even though its their motto. Lets just say the comparison is just a bit twisted. Would you even give lexus credit for trying? Did anyone read my comparison between the two companies? Seems like most Bmw owners are more hostile towards a car that can potentially undercut them in some aspects.originally posted by DinanM3atl
BMW is the ultimate driving machine
Meaning customer satisfaction. I believe they're reports on this.Originally posted by DinanM3atl
What does it mean BMW can't touch Lexus service?
