I would take a 3 series wagon over this lump any day. It has a lower center of gravity for better handling, lighter weight for better acceleration and fuel consumption, and is much better looking IMHO.
BMW should offer more options on the wagon - manual, RWD, 335i drivetrain, etc. - and not waste their money on this thing. In Europe you see more wagons than sedans. Even the police cars in Munich are 320d wagons. If you want a SUV, get an X3 or X5. At least they have some carrying capability.
