My Ride: 2004 530i

So my certified warranty is ending this june and im looking to get rid of my e60. Its been great but has been having a few issues lately, some covered under warranty and some not. Im looking into a few cars and have been looking at reviews but theyre all mixed opinions. Im looking to see if anyone has personally owned these cars or could suggest anything honestly. Reliability is a big thing on my mind, as im going to college this fall and will be on my own. Any help is great! thanks
Here are the models

BMW: 335 coupe, 650 coupe
Cadillac: Escalade (Short wheelbase)
Land Rover: Range Rover, Range Rover Sport (Supercharged or not supercharged)
Mercedes: CLS

Thanks again guys

With the 335i you might have HPFP issues. Out of the list, the easiest to maintain my guess would be the Caddy - standard GM power train that just about everyone can fix. I love the look of the CLS and considering the power train is E-class a lot of the kinks have been worked out. Now I am not sure if the CLS comes with an air suspension which could create a maintenance hassle later on.
