I've driven a few 3 series and they really left me cold... bland, bland, bland, totally common all in all nothing special. The 630 (drove not owned!!) was ok but had the looks only a mother could love and even then it'd be difficult!!

All in all Given the choice I'd be with Benz every day of the week and twice on sundays... Audi strike me as being better than BM in the quality department but again waaaaay too common for me
