Bottomline The 2008 Audi A6 has plenty of competition, but its graceful look and feel set it apart from more brutal German and more clinical Japanese iron. The 2008 BMW 5-Series Sports Wagon is a great alternative to an SUV for those who prefer to drive enthusiastically. The STS is middle-of-the-pack in many respects, but it stands out as Cadillac’s technology flagship.
