I havent driven the diesels, but I've had the occassion to drive and compare some of the petrol versions in this segment (E-Class, 5 Series, A6) and my PERSONAL feeling has been that the new Audis are better than the Beemers and the Mercs in the same segment. They are more all-round cars than the other two and make you FEEL better and in this segment its all about FEELING.
I have no idea how their respective diesel engines fare against each other, but the E270 was a pretty decent bomb and I believe the E280 takes that a few levels higher.
