I look forward to reading the entire article. However, for now, I prefer the objectively superior car that absolutely dominated the performance tests.
Also, how in the world did C&D possibly get the M5C price up to $141K? I just went through the BMW configurator and loaded up the car with the Exec package, the Driving Assistance Pro package, CCBs, and upgraded leather. The total was $128K and that includes a number of things not available on the Caddy, so if we compare similarly equipped cars, the price gap gets even smaller. Price does appear to be one of the main factors that favored the Caddy, this is just wrong.
Looks like C&D also gave points to the Caddy for brake feel, but completely ignored actual braking performance.
Overall, I smell some serious bias.
