Motor Trend's 335 Vs. G7 Article Is Stupid

According to Motor Trend's test data, the 335i is faster, has better fuel economy, is roomier, has more trunk space, and better weight distribution. Being that this comparison was hosted by Infiniti (pg 52 of the article) I think the author of the article, Frank Markus, must have owed Infiniti some kind of favor. Why even compare the vehicles if the deciding factor is price???? It's just a poorly written article with an illogical conclusion.
