Well it didn't, and that's what matters!

Will be interesting to see other comparisons of these cars, and see who wins!

no not really, just check how many times these cars has been compared and then you realize which car is a favorite. Pointless, probably in the eyes of a fanatic. The C-class would have won this test if price and costs wasn't included.

The C really looks good in those pics. What did they say in the "spotlight" section? I see they're comparing the various control units.

They're comparing the control systems of each of the cars (i-Drive etc.). According to AMS, the C-Class has the easiest to use and understand controls. They criticize the BMW i-Drive in terms of user friendliness. The Audi's system is ok, except the monitor is positioned a little to low.
