I didn't realize you can post things like this in The Lounge.... Which car should I get (or which cars should I definitely take off my long list)?

I know I am all over the place with my current options, but I'm looking to get a new car in a couple months and I can't seem to focus.
In no specific order:
To prove how all over the place I am (and was), I even considered looking at the 2015 Hyundai Genesis for maybe 10 minutes.
Updated list:
2014 BMW 328i Sedan
2014 Mercedes-Benz C250 C250 Luxury Sedan
2014 Audi A4 4dr Sdn Auto quattro 2.0T Premium
2014 Volvo S60 4dr Sdn T5 Premier AWD
2014 Cadillac ATS 2.0L I4 AWD
2014 Infiniti Q50 AWD (just because MLV feels I've short changed Infinitis and I should give them a shot)
Honorable mention:
2014 Lincoln MKZ 4dr Sdn AWD
In no specific order:
- Lincoln MKZ - I was initially thinking of the Hybrid initially, but plugging in my car (and remembering to do so) seems like too much trouble.

- Cadillac ATS - 0% financing for up to 72 months is very attractive, but that might end at the end of April
- Volvo S60 - the first brand new car I ever got was a Volvo (many, many years ago)
- Lexus ISC - everyone needs a convertible, no?
- Mercedes CLA250
- Mercedes C250
- BMW 328i - I believe this is mandatory on all car lists.

- Lexus ES350

Not sure about the ATS' reliability, either.
Also, Toyota just announced it's new Camry design(I know what you are thinking). Take a look at the pics though of the XSE model. I think looks rather nice, think it will make my short list at end of year when I look.

The new Camry does look sharp, but.... it is still a Camry. Not that there's anything wrong with that. It's sort of like the 2015 Hyundai Genesis. Although on paper they both look like great cars, at least the Camry's base MSRP should be substantially less than the cars on my current list. FYI the base MSRP for the 2015 Genesis is actually higher than the 328i or I believe any of the other cars on my list and I'd still need to add some options to it.
FYI I don't really care about sales figures, but I do care if they discontinue a car.
Still lots of cars to ponder.
Brian: Uh, Peter, there's a "t" in there. That says "audit".
Peter: No, Brian, it's a foreign car... the "t" is silent. (pauses) Sweet, I'm gettin' an Audi!
Chris: (lifting up his shirt and staring at his bellybutton) I have an innie.
BTW I was just looking for more opinions.

I know if I go to test drive any of them, I will likely buy one of them that weekend, so I'm trying to dwindle down my list until I'm ready to buy.
