Here's the thing, BMW's are probably still the best luxury sporty cars you can buy. But as a whole I would say all luxury sporty cars over the past decade have become much more dull to drive. The divide between sports car and sporty luxury car, in terms of performance, has REALLY grown. Meanwhile sports cars like Corvettes and GT-Rs and 911s have become very comfortable and very easy to drive on a day-to-day basis through the advancement in damper technology like GM's Magnetic Ride, etc.

As you know, once you drive a car like a 911 or a Cayman and then hop back into a BMW, it really becomes a disappointing experience. Sorry but that is just the facts and those who say otherwise either a) are BMW brand loyalists or b) have not actually driven the sports cars that they say they have driven
