Bottomline The 2008 Audi S6 offers driving thrills that few sedans can match -- and a V-10 heart that would be right at home in a Lamborghini. The stellar performance of the 2009 BMW M5 overshadows its idiosyncrasies and technologically overwrought feel. The 2009 Jaguar XF is an easy car to love. It performs as well as anything in the class--and has unexpected glamorous touches that will win over converts.
