No, BMW is not at Porsche level at least when it comes to the 911 or 718. The question of is BMW at Porsche level when it comes to the Panamera however can be answered as that is much closer and easier to debate in my opinion.
The 911 is just too different of a car when it comes to driving. You may be able to get a Carrera and 8er at the same price, however one is a sports car with GT levels of refinement, and the other is just a pure GT car. One weighs over 2 tons, the other can weigh as little as 3300lbs. One is front engined sharing a platform with SUVs and Sedans, the other is rear engined and on a bespoke platform/chassis, not to mention the 911 is more than a foot smaller in length, overall the point is clear.
Both are awesome cars but for different purposes which may or may not fit you as a buyer. In my opinion, the two aren't really comparable other than in maybe 0-60 times and price, a Panamera is a much closer competitor, although mainly to the GC.
