I fully agree that a G37 is a very close 2nd to the 328i; but in no way believe that a G37 will out handle a 328i.
The problem in competing with a 3 series is that you just can’t throw horsepower and expect to beat BMW. It’s not about sheer power. For the price, the 3 series is damn near automotive perfection. Often imitated but never duplicated, you’ll never fall asleep at the wheel driving a 3 series
I’m not trying to start a fight, but the 3 Series – even the lowly 328 – has no peer. They are the best at what they do, period.
Check CD, Edmunds, MT…the list goes on and on, year after year – the 3 series (yes, even the 328) is the best in it’s category.
No other manufacturer makes an engine (in it’s category) that can compare to the “sublime” 3.o inline 6 cylinder. But of course the 3 series is so much more than the motor.
Check Wards list of the top ten engines – you will find the BMW 3.0 inline 6 there at the top nearly every year.
No, no – the G37 is very good, but the 328i/335i holds it’s rightful place on the Throne.
