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 2010 Mercedes-Benz E-Class sedan swings to the masculine side of the pendulum and sharpens its driving appeal in the process.
