Look wise, no doubt the E90 looks better, but thats just my opinion.
Not just the aluminum suspension parts have been replace with steel but the whole from sub frame, also, the oil pan is now made of plastic.

Yeah, steel is cheaper to use, but plastic? Er... While I think that's not a bad move if the underside is never hit, but if so, any crack or damage to it is a guaranteed trip for a full replacement. At least with a metal oil pan, a dent here or there (for whatever reason) is able to be tolerated.
