I think the 9-5's natural competition are the G35 and TL. Medium sized, moderately priced cars. $30-35K. All available with similar features and performance.
You're correct that the lesser powered 5, E, and A6 models are on more in line with (or even a step or two behind) the 9-5. Generally speaking though, the interiors and other available options in those cars leaves the 9-5 in the dust. The 9-5 is nice of course, but the E and A6 especially are opulent. This is reflected in that big price difference.
I guess our difference of opinion is that I think cars should be compared to similarly priced cars, while you're considering size & basic features more.
