You can always buy a Porsche. Hell,even the Lexus GS is now sportier than the 5er, bc BMW decided to chase the A6. BMW is losing its competitive edge in sport.

I agree. I think we will see the M division step up to fill that gap. From what I have read about 4 series it should help but I'm with you, 3 is turning into just another small smooth sedan.
