I test drove a 2012 Audi A6 Prestige with S-Line trim, 19″ sport wheel package with a sport suspension, Audi side assist and a Bose Surround Sound system. The ride was a combination of agile performance and progressive design that made it comfortable on the highway yet sporty and easy to drive on tight roads and in the city.

•BMW 535ix
•E350 4-Matic
•Jaguar XF
•Lexus GS460

Likes:
•Well-crafted interior with high-quality materials
