In this boat right now. I like the Jaguar XE but I don't buy new cars and leasing is stupid for my situation as I drive roughly 30k miles with work. I've looked at EVERYTHING in the 3 and 5 Series category comparatively, and nothing does it for me. At least not in the used car price range I'm looking at, $30k-$40k out the door. The F30 335i is just where it's at. There's really nothing else on the market that gives the looks, performance and feel of this BMW. If I were out 3 years from now there would be a slew of cars with comparable everything to sway me including the XE 3.0 S, Merc C400-C450 and Cadillac ATSV. But for right now, the F30 is king.
If money was no object I'd do an F80 M3, C63 AMG sedan or ATSV. That boost bug is a must have in my life...
