ATS cancelled/dead, CTS dead if not in the chopping block.

Similar in the UK. We have Jaguar and Alfa models as competitors to the 3-series. Both accepted as having better driving dynamics on UK roads. But do those who want the better drive (including BMW drivers who bemoan the 3-series driving dynamics) move to either...? Very few. Come the 'crunch', the BMW offers far more to users than the need for the 'edge' on driving dynamics.
Now we have the G20, which is being received very well over here in the UK reviews and first user's feedback. Seems the 3-series has its crown back, will be even harder for the competition to take sales away.
