Hilarious. But somehow I still feel just slightly offended, having owned a number of fine E3's. To me the E3 is still one of the all time best BMW sedans. They established the market for what it meant to combine sport and luxury. Nothing else came close in terms of a fun to drive car that would seat four adults in comfort. The Mercs were bloated barges, Audi's were cheap junk, and the big Jags lacked the relatively light & agile character of these E3's. Perhaps only the big Alfa's offered a similar combination.
