I disagree with this, unless you're talking about Gatwick and Orly.

T5 and the new T2 at Heathrow are nicer than anything in NY's airports. T1 has been closed and T3 will soon be closed, so that both can be rebuilt. T4 is more like a JFK terminal, but I'm not sure I've ever used it (maybe Delta before they moved to T3, otherwise it's home to African and Asian flag carriers).

And both of these have much better transit connections into town (and in the case of CDG, a national network high speed rail station).
