Sport Sedan $40,001-$55,000

BMW 540i Winner: BMW 540i

The V8 rear-drive sports sedan class is heating up with the top entries coming from upstart Lexus (GS400) and the always-impressive BMW (540i). After a recent shootout between these two titans, we found ourselves more than surprised by the overall competency of the GS. However, for pure smiles-per-mile, you simply can't beat the BMW 5-series. It offers every luxury option a mere mortal could need combined with the sort of driving experience we all want: smooth, safe, and thrilling at the same time. If you've got the cash, this is your car.
