While bimmerphiles are trying to hang on to a lost era!

I don't agree with that at all. I like the E92/E90 a lot. They are small, tight, and offer great feedback to the driver. They are different from the E46, sure, but they still drive "like a BMW."

The F series cars picked up more luxury and lost some of that traditional "BMW feel," which I hope comes back (I see promise in certain models).

That's the fun in it, though. You could say the same thing about the E46 vs the E30. There's tons of debate within BMW circles as to which is the "greatest" generation. Everyone has a different answer.

I do like that Mercedes has stepped up their game in the sport/handling department. They were lacking in that area for a long time but some of their recent offerings are great performers, whether I'm attracted to them or not.

Jaguar is similar... they are in the middle of reinventing themselves to the point where they are starting to be relevant again. The XE and F Pace are going to be big for them, I believe. The Tata group has definitely taken them in the right direction.
