It mut be pointed out that there is nothing exclusive about a 3series or C Class, they are nothing more than a German Mazda 6. their base model spec in the current and past series and Euro/US price tag reflects this.

I am well aware of the general shortcomings of the E60 as compared to an equivalent E39. However the differences between those two models are infinitesimal compared to the cars we tested today. And you are right, there is nothing exclusive about a 3series or a C-class.
