Here is a good article comparing the 545 against the A6. It seems that it is now trendy among some of the car mags to trash BMW, but here is what seems like a very honest review, that doesn't harbour on about I-drive, the design, etc, but instead focuses on what cars are supposed to do, and that is to be driven.

Nice read...it points out a lot of the little things that people seem to forget about the BMW (other people that is).

Auto123.com "Obviously BMW has reacted to complaints about the inconsistent behaviour of its earlier active-steering systems. Our 545i's moves felt more like the "ultimate driving machines" of old with lots of meaty feel and none of the abrupt moves the previous system would force upon a driver as you would move through a serious of turns of different radiuses."

Excellent read. You have to love comparisons that concentrate on the driving. If you read the road and track article that placed the Infiniti ahead of the BMW, it got there completely on styling, which IMHO is BS. The 545 is definitely "the ultimate driving machine".
