it's always great to see that the BMW3series is still king of the road.

LOL

The BMW is very very pricey indeed. What did they test? The 325 or the 330?

It was a 330i 6spd, the A4 was the 3.2 auto and the Lexus was the IS350

In the USA, those first two are in the $40-50K range (not sure about the Lexus) while you can buy a WRX sedan for like $23K. Seems a silly comparison to me, that, or their weighted by price results don't work very well... the WRX is absolutely awesome for the price if you want a hot little vehicle. (but it clearly has the interior of a Kia)
