BMW - nice drive.
Panda - no first hand experience, but roll, limited grip, underpowered, not
a total condemnation since the braking performance of the Panda is probably
equivalent to the BMW ('you canna change the laws of physics'*)

BMW - quiet
Panda - I doubt it, especially if the Panda is a diesel.

BMW - comfortable - true! Probably AC.
Panda - narrow, poor leg room, thin seat squab, limited suspension
capability, to be fair god headroom, open the window for fresh air...

Yes the Panda scores [badly] on all points.
