To me the G30 feels more premium than any G20 M340i included.

The cabin quality and appointments of the 5er puts you a lot closer to a 7er.

The G20 interior has solid built but also suffers from lots of hard plastics where you don't see but still can touch.

The seats and road noise insulation in the G30 will always be better than the G20.

If you take a look at the inside of the doors in the G20 you can see the where they left out the extra parts of insulation found d on the same regions of the inside part of the doors in the G30.

The G20 is more nimble but not by much in comparison to the G30.

At the end of the day it comes down to personal preference and size of bank account. While the G30 is far from perfect, BMW really nailed the interior and quality of materials in this generation.
