This months C&D, the 300+hp G goes against the lowest 3 series 328i with only 230 hp and 200 lb tq. 230/200 is low for minivans these days!! Just the same, they gave the vote to the BMW, and not by a close vote.

Noise and refinement seem to be the biggest factors. Some will blame advertising dollars (don't get that cause Nissan advertises more than BMW). I, for one, think Nissan needs to step up to the BMW/Lexus competition. The refinement complaint is a serious issue, at least with recent models.

 

C&D is biased, I swear.. They always pick bmw over nissan. It could be a bmw lawn mower vs. the infiniti M.. theyd pick the damn lawn mower.

The stupid ford fusion c&d commercials on tv constantly prove to me that you can buy them off and they will say whatever you want.

Most reviews, I would recommend you ignore the writers final conclusion, just read the bits about various features and characteristics. The rest is bs opinion.

this kinda proves it =) 07G>Bmw 3 series

 

^^^ about those ford fusion commercials. ive always thought the same thing until i realized that in those tests, they used a V6 AWD Fusion against I4 FWD accords and camrys. so basically the lowest of the low for the japs and the premium for the american. of course the fusions gona win. but the comparison is extremely biased

 

There is already a thread discussing this comparo in the Other Cars section.
