BMW!
BMW forever
Price wise, the infiniti g37 should be in this group. That car is certainly competitive with the 328i.
I have a Audi a8 and it is epic!
Pice of over rated over priced german shit… 30k will get a 2013 Genesis coupe V6 350hp with brembo brakes!
Get rid of the Volvo and put the Cadillac ATS. but, it was pretty close between the BMW and the audi, everybody else were just present.

AUDI FOREVERRRRRRRRR (I drive a 2.0 TDI though ahahaha)
THE BEST IS AUDI
Pieces of over rated over priced german shit… 30k will get a 2013 Genesis coupe V6 350hp with brembo brakes!
These guys were extremely awkward in their little group discussion. No one had a firm opinion, every sentence ended with a question mark… terrible review.

BMW
do this test again now with the cadillac ats in it.
Bmw

garbage brakes on the BMW, shameful!!
Audi all the way!

Too many cars in this test. Apples and oranges. Should have kept it German only. And the kissing up to the manufacturers gets irritating. They make BMW’s reversion from six to four cylinders sound like good news. Go by the commentary as each German car is driven, and each of the Germans won. Did price play a role in the voting? Evidently not, even though this segment is extremely price sensitive. I’m a long-time C&D reader and I’m disappointed. In a few years the print mags will be gone and it’
