I agree with those two. But to me the greatest American sedan made today is the Caddy CTS-V.

Too new to tell yet on the 2010. My dad drives an 07 e550 and at 27k miles the entire front differential needs to be replaced (4matic)....$4000. The 08 ML we had was ok but the dealers are shit, rude, pompous and errogant. Never again. 4th bmw and never one issue.

I love the CTS-V but I would better spend my money on M5 rather cts-v

btw I took the car to bmw mechanic, he said its either I have a leak or I think something called mass filter sensor, something like that. he cleared the engine error nd see if it comes again it would most likely a sensor

Maybe I am just a sport coupe person...

I've been saying that all along. I love my E60, bu the 3ers handle much better just because they're smaller and can get around objects a lot quicker. You don't see BMW racing many E60s, do you? There's a reason for it.

To the original poster, if you are going to buy something that is going to feel detached from the road and rolls from side to side around curves, why not buy American and help keep an American factory worker employed. Go with any of the Cadillacs....
