I agree, even base E46 and E90 cars had more BMW feel to them and the F30 REQUIRES certain packages now.

We wanted a wagon and no car payment. WE test drove the Focus ST and a variety of other small hatches and wagons, everything was too small, too shitty inside, or just bland. I got a '06 Saab 9-5 wagon with a stick-threw on a tune etc and began addressing the terrible handling lol. Love it though, the size and utility, and no one sees a gray 300+hp wagon coming.
