Default Possible New GS350 owner

Hello,

My names is Ron and im looking into purchasing a new car within nov/dec. I have finally narrowed down my choices, and figured I'd get opinions& recommendations from owners of the car already. All four of the cars below have everything I need, some more then others. I would prefer AWD, but its not necessary. Biggest thing for me is resell value & reliability. I plan to keep the car for 1-2 years also. Anything in particular with the GS350 I should be aware of or stay away from?.\

2009 Jaguar XF (PREM)
2009 Lexus GS350 (awd)
2009 535XI (awd)
2008 CLS550

I have an '07 GS350AWD; styling, power, gas mileage, cooled seats are great.
Minimal luggage space, no folding back seat, engine that sounds like sewing machine not so great. Run flat tires bother many guys on here; they don't bother me that much, but 17 wheels on this kind of car are small. My daughter has current generation Audi A6. I think I prefer it.

Thanks for taking the time out! Overall the lexus, looks like the best bang for the buck, even with there negative press, we love toyota's and it is my top choice. I have no kids, so folding seats/trunk space will not be an issue. Wheels are okay, they will be swapped out for nice aggressive deep-concave wheels. I never looked at audi, I might check them out also.
