Completely new for the 2011 model year, the 5-Series and its not-quite-a-wagon 5-Series GT sister are once again setting benchmarks for the mid-size luxury class.

Not just reviving the legend of the rally-bred, off-the-walls Lancia Stratos, the New Stratos breathes new life into the name. But it won't see production, at least beyond the extremely limited kind, because Ferrari won't consent to it. Why does Ferrari have a say in the matter?
