As an American it bothers me that our best is second rate. Why can't I buy a V12 or big V8 Ford or Caddy that is the pinical of design and quality?

Because GM doesn't have anything to market to that high of a price point. It would be pointless, the average Cadillac buyer may be a well off retiree or such, but they are not going to spend a copious amount of money on a car, especially one festooned with such gadgetry which might be useful, will make them feel like they are driving a damn spaceship. The money is in the midrange, not the upper spectrum. Perhaps this is why in the US, MB moves more E and C classes than S classes.
