it most certainly is a fun car. it goes back to the spirit of bmw when it first became popular - light, fast, fun sports sedans with sublime handling and decent luxury. many people today only know bmw as a "luxury car" but they have only become that way fairly recently.
handling and driving dynamics rank it among the best cars i've ever driven. performance allegedly comes close to the new E92 M3 (never raced an M3 to prove it though) - your results will vary with the 2.0 though. i love the styling, but some people hate it. only cons are the backseat space (but it's a small car, duh) and the ride is harsh with the stock runflats
