I have the chance to buy one of these cars with my own money & no help from anyone else(Mom is co-signing though). I'm not a new driver so I'm use to being behind the wheel & have had the chance to drive a few powerful cars like the M5 that my uncle let me drive over the summer & a Murcielago that was rented for the weekend for my 21st B-Day. I've listed all the good/bad things "I"(not "YOU") like about the cars, both I've been able to find under $26,000 & don't tell me that I didn't because I found about 4 used car dealers that made deals with me.

2007 Jeep SRT8.

Good Things:
Cheapest Price Found $24,800 (without taxes & fees added on) 48,750/Miles
HP-420, 6.1-liter Hemi V8 & with upgrades that I've found that I can afford HP can be raised to 480-500
Heated Seats, Power Sunroof, Navigation, CD player, 20 inch wheels with Brembo Brakes
Power Brakes, Power Steering, Dual front, side & head airbags, Rear head airbags/active belts, 4 Wheel Standard, Anti-lock Brakes
One of the best looking & powerful SUV's on the market
Affordable Insurance (Quoted by my mothers' Agent)

Bad Things:
Fuel economy, Rear leg-room(which doesn't really bug me cause I won't be in the back)
Interior Design could be better

2006 BMW 550I

Good Things:
Cheapest Price Found $23,900 (without taxes & fess added on) 52,757/Miles
360-HP, 4.8-Liter V8 & if I were to add upgrades from Dinan HP would be around 390-400
To many features to list but it gets a A+++++
Great Exterior Styling
Affordable Insurance(Quoted by my mothers' Agent)

Bad Things:
iDrive Controls(some what got the hang of it in the M5)
Seat Comfort

Which should I pick & which will have fewer problems & less costly?
