IMO, the quattroporte is sweet. People either love it or hate. But it has a paddle shift gearbox and suspension that is said to be not really ideal in town traffic. This car is really for enthusiasts. So my suggestion is try the car extensively in all traffic conditions, especially in town traffic jams, before you buy. Otherwise, from the sound of it, your parents want a 4 door sedan, then I would reluctantly say, Mecedes CLS, because it will be more comfortable, but I dont know about cool.
The BMW 6, well as much as I like BMs, I only dig it in convertible form, and I prefer the 3 series convertible, M3 or 335i.
The jag XK8 is nice looking if you as a driver look good in it (if it suits you). It seems to be that the coupes are out for you, anyway.
Good luck
