Which car is for me?

Hey, so I have decided that I will buy two cars by February 2016.
For one of them, I am 100% sure I am going for the CLS63 AMG S. Black, with black interior and black rims, as well as the night package. That suits me great.

For the other car, though, I am unsure wether to get the BMW M4, BMW M6, C63 AMG S, Audi RS5, Porsche 911 Carrera/Carrera S, or Maserati Ghibli SQ4.

Yes, I am aware that these cars don't all necessarily compete to each other performance-wise. Although they all fit into the sports car category, it does not mean they can be fairly compared. For instance, I can't really compare the M4 with the M6 (the M6 is made to be more potent than the M4), or the RS5 with the Ghibli. Why am I even listing these, then? Well, I am not sure what I am looking for. These 6 cars are appealing to me and if you guys like I'll write pros and cons in my opinion for each. What I want from the car is:
  • Over 350hp
  • Appealing appearance
  • Loud engine rev sound (aka good stock exhaust)
  • Well-designed, good looking interior
  • Have enough visual discrepancies from its original version (if applicable) that dictates that the car is sport oriented.
  • Have reasonable space in the back seat (no, not like a Maybach, like something that isn't useless)

So, which car would be my best fit here? I am willing to spend up to around 100k, but if the car costs less that's better.
If you have any suggestions please make sure to let me know as well!

I looked into the Jaguar XK-R but it went out of production recently, unfortunately. Plus it was kind of outdated. It did sorta check all the boxes, though.

Thanks

I would go for the c63 S out of those if I was you, but maybe I'm biased because I love Mercedes
