For me, a large part of it comes down to perception. I'm not a snob, but I realize it sounds snobby.
The Camaro SS and the Mustang GT are great performance cars. But every high school parking lot has about twenty Camaros and Mustangs. It's not about the "rarity" of the 2 series, either. Where I live, BMWs are a dime a dozen (even if they're mostly 328s). The difference is that I'd feel a little weird driving a high school kid's car, even if it's great. As a professional and an adult, it makes you look a bit silly
