Compared to the 330-horsepower M37, the M56 sounds like overkill with its 420-hp, 5.6-liter V-8. But this engine is startlingly fast and, thanks to engineering improvements, no longer comes with such a fuel economy penalty. We also tend to like the M56 better...

The 2012 Infiniti M56 competes with the Audi A6, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class, the BMW 5-Series, the Lexus GS, the Jaguar XF, and even the Hyundai Genesis and Lincoln MKS—but it’s the E-Class, 5-Series and XF that find themselves outgunned in many ways by the new M.

The Audi A6 was just redesigned for 2012, with a plush, well-detailed interior and advanced interface shared with the A7; but its interior is quite conservative.

The BMW 5-Series was also new last year, and it has better handling than the previous version and even more safety tech.

Meanwhile, the Mercedes-Benz E-Class has a sharply pressed new suit and an upgraded interior--and a newfound sense of the road ahead, with sharper, quicker steering and a hot AMG-powered E63 four-door version.

The Jaguar XJ can't be forgotten either; especially in 510-hp XFR form, it's almost exotic-quick while drawing looks from all kinds; but its tight backseat remains a major drawback.

Also, the Lexus GS has been completely redesigned for 2012, with better performance and a sharper look.
