According to this https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_classification it's less cost than the size and purpose of the vehicle.

Only the 7-series is unambiguously luxury. Which aligns with my European view that a 3-series is your bog standard "large family car" or "small executive car".

3-series is seen as a compact sports car here in the USA.

Sounds more like the M labelled cars, much like Benz's AMG range.

Is the non-M 3-series considered sports?
