The BMW wins but the STS shows well. Both great cars.

I have not yet driven either one but from what I have seen at the auto shows I would take the STS hands-down. No I-Drive, better sheet metal, seemingly more solid construction, and an interior that IMO just blows the Bimmer away.....not to mention the promise of better reliability and electronics.

Me too.
Zero-to-60 came up in 5.63 seconds for the 545 vs. 6.27 for the Cadillac. Quarter-mile was 14.14 at 100.6 mph vs. 14.71 at 95.2. Times for 20 to 40, 40 to 60 and 60 to 80 were all BMW by a half-second or more.
