Why should I also consider these?

The BMW 7-Series has long duked it out with the Mercedes S-Class for Germany's top honors.

The Audi A8 is an aluminum-framed car with more conservative looks but a surprisingly nimble feel; it's offered in short- and long-wheelbase versions, as are the Jaguar XJ and Lexus LS.

The Lexus LS 460 also gets a long-wheelbase hybrid companion, the LS 600h.
