Bottomline The 2008 BMW 3-Series sedan has the best overall driving experience in its class and remains the gold standard among mid-size sport sedans. The 2008 BMW 6-Series is overwrought and overstocked with technology that distracts even from the M6’s heroic performance. The 2009 Mercedes-Benz CLK-Class is awash in expensive luxury and complex engineering.
