This is basically me. I ended up getting an IS350 F-Sport because for the price, the features, sportiness, luxury, looks, and interior were better than the German competitors.

The 335i/340i, S4, and C450 are all about $10k more before taxes in Canada. The 335i/340i steering is so numb that it completely turned me off of the car, despite that it actually handled decently. The C-class was good, but wasn't really that sporty. And the S4 was fun, but wasn't worth the extra price difference.

All in all, the IS350 is better than those cars except for straight line speed. But for the price, it's worth it because you get everything else + unique looks and really good reliability.

50k is possibly the most asshole budget because the premium manufacturers will only give you compacts for that kinda money, and over at the budget luxury manfacturers the highest models juuuuust start at 50k, meaning you can juuuuust not afford one and have to settle for the second highest model.

Which isn't the worst deal in the world though, the Genesis starts at 39k and looks fantastic, meaning you can go wild on the options and only have to debadge it when it arrives.

It is. The only German interior that was better when I bought my IS last year was the new C-class. The 3 series interior is absolute garbage (still is in the 340i). The S4 interior was garbage, but the 2017 one is nice.

Leaving out the fact that OP is a retard for commuting that much to a "well paid job", Merc and Audi are shitboxes of the highest order which still suffer from catastrophic electric problems unlike BMW who finally got their shit together and started making cars that won't just fall apart after 80000 miles.

Seeing as you're apparently too poor for the 440i though you have to get the beaner version aka 3 series.

Have you considered a Volvo S60?

It'll probably be tough, but they should start cropping up once the Guila comes out. The 4c has already been sold in the US for a few years, and Alfa is owned by FCA, so it's not a very obscure brand. There are already 2 dealerships in my city.

Basically this. Personally I'd recommend an E90, A4/S4 (B8 generation) or the aforementioned IS-F but if you REALLY have to buy a new German luxury car, BMW went full retard in 2013-ish and Audi on 2016+ (interiors went from 10/10 to 5/10) models; go with Mercedes.

Also fuck Mercedes for ruining Chrysler.

Yeah I am. I've driven them all and the IS F-Sport feels on par with the 340i in handling, but the driving feel is far superior to the 3 series. They tuned the IS's steering and suspension so that it actually feels sporty and you can feel what your tires are doing through the wheel. This isn't the case with any non-M BMWs I've driven except the M235i.

As someone with a similar situation, sans the 50k, traffic, and only a 40k/yr job,
I'm considering either a vw caddy diesel with an extended fuel tank for dem empeegees, or a Volvo v70 turbo/awd/manual

The luxury sedans in your picture are around 140k with packages and stuff.

I would aim for fully loaded 2016 Lexus LS460L (long wheel base of course) that is 110k.

But since the budget is 50k I guess I would settle for a Mazda 6 and save the rest of the money.
