You are really on top of this!

A few spring immediately to mind:

1. Volvo 780 (but avoid the problematic V6, stay with the 4 cyl. turbo.)

Lush, leather interior, rich wood on dash, styled by Bertone:

2. Mercedes W124 300CE/E320 coupes.
Finding one with the Sportline package is even better! Neat, nimble, beautiful, reliable

3. Mercedes 500SEC/560SEC
A real GT type cruiser, trunkroom of a sedan (I'm a bit biased, and made that choice)

4. BMW 840ci
(direct competitor to the 560SEC and Jag. XJS, gorgeous cruisers, avoid the 12 cyl. 850ci)
