Even though you kid, I agree that the E82 is the truer to the BMW heritage than the F30. The E82 is the modern day E36, IMHO. The F30 has a wealth of creature comforts and high-tech gadgetry that make it a "luxury" sports sedan.
I drive my parent's F30 328i often and I'm starting to appreciate may of the advanced features (blind spot detection, lane departure warning, collision warning, heads-up display, variable suspension, surround cameras with birds-eye view, EfficientDynamics and Performance displays, full color instrument cluster, etc.).
That said, I'm happy with our E82 and E84. If we weren't expecting our first child, I would not have traded our E90 for the E84.
