Im going to completely disagree with you. Compare for instance- the BMW 3-series to the C-Class or the A4. The 3-series is immensely more fun to drive then its Benz and Audi counterparts. Im not going to go into the specifics, but pic up virtually any comparison including the BMW 3-series, and the BMW will be either 1st or 2nd (to the G35), beating out Audi and Benz every single time.

BMW is considered by most to be the best driver's car on the market. The feedback is better then its competition, they handle better, they are generally lighter, and they are generally more reliable.

I don't mean to put you down, but driving cars around a parking lot doesn't make you an expert on these cars. You really need to get out on the roads and spend more time with the cars to understand their characteristics, and the people that do, generally prefer BMWs over Benz or Audi.

Unresponsive has NEVER been considered a characteristic of BMWs. So either you havn't driven the cars to their potential or you do not know what you are talking about. The only real common complaints about BMWs usually stem from the IDrive systems on the 5, 6, and 7 series.

O, and the new M5/M6 obliterates all of their competition. Theres a bunch of videos of them beating the likes of the 996 Turbo and the like.

If you are looking for posers, look for C-Class Benz drivers. Those cars are actually the cheaply built, unresponsive, slow cars that you called BMWs. The AMG cars are all automatics too, which is kinda pathetic.
