On that comment in the video about the 1 coupe being "minus the z4's agility"... I doubt that. BMW has proven in the past to be better at dialing in the handling of its four seaters than its sports cars, which have never come out on top in any handling comparisons versus Porsches or even Honda's S2000 (IIRC). The 3 series, however, always blows away the competition in side by side reviews. Last year Clarkson tested the M6, and while he disliked certain things about it (can you say "iDrive"?) he thought it handled better than the Aston Martin it was being compared to. He also found the 1 series hatch much more fun to drive than the formidable VW R32.
