Ya gotta wind the sucker up with high revs, to get it to move...but it will. Smaller, more of a harsh road feel, but can carve up the twisty roads.

After the 5 a 3 does nothing for me. I dislike the dash, fuel economy is no better, hate run flats, ergonomic are way off-window switches out of reach for driver without stretching, passenger side window switch is ahead of the door pull which means you have to do some odd wrist manuevering.
Do not like the tail lights. Do not like the way the grill is divided between bumper and hood.
After getting use to the idrive in my 5, I am having difficulty managing things in the 3.
I thought the 5 was a land yacht when I first got it. The 5 feels more substantial than the 3. For instance, on the 3, the interior door panels look like they have been scooped out....wider at the top near the window. Makes it feel cheap and puny.
I WANT MY CAR BACK!!!!!

Dash to me looks like something from a Dodge Polaris 1970's police car

I guess I didn't expect for it to feel like such a small car.
I was happy to get my 5 back...

You must really not be liking it, as you've shared this twice now (here and your other thread)
. Hopefully you get your car back soon...
