Getting a new car, don't know what to get!
So my parents are finally convinced that I am not going to crash my car or lose my license so it is time to get a new car. I feel absolutely lost with no idea of what to get, I live up in the mountains so I want AWD/4WD, heated seats etc. but I also want it to be quick. I have narrowed it down to this list, which is absolutely jumbled and all over the place: around 50-60k range
-Used Range Rover Sport Supercharged -New BMW 335xi Coupe -Used Range Rover HSE -New BMW X5 4.8 -Used BMW X5 4.8is -Used Mercedes CLS500 (rwd) -New Cadillac Escalade -New Audi S5 -Used Audi A8 -Used BMW 7-series (rwd) -Used Porsche Cayenne Turbo -Used Lexus LS460 (rwd) -New Jeep SRT-8 So which is the best?

From your comments it appears your a young person. If that's true my suggestion is to show some wisdom and consider the following:
If your looking for an all-wheel-drive vehicle look no further than Suzuki's brand-new 2007/8 SX4, the lowest priced all-wheel-drive car sold in the U.S. This vehicle is priced at an astounding $14,999. So if you crash it (which a lot of young people do starting out) Then your parents won't stress to much about the cost of repairing a high-line vehicle. Yeah I know they may be able to afford it but IMHO at your age spending 50-60k for a vehicle isn't good judgement especially if you had to convince them you were not going to crash it.

Well this will be car number 3, first a dodge durango, then a BMW X5 4.4, now one of these. The progression is basically earning the next car by maintaining good grades and a clean driving record along with a clean car.

Blow your parents minds and go with Quicksilver's advice. The feeling you get buying your own luxury or performance car with your own money is 100X that of having your parents buying you one.
Showing your parents you are responsible and realistic...Is priceless.
