What luxury/premium car should I get? Young and indecisive

I'm 24 years old, female, living at home, with an annual gross income of 77k. I'm ready to switch from my cheap Hyundai to a spacious and luxurious feeling car.

I'm primarily looking to finance a used SUV (not subcompact) but open to roomy sedans. To give you perspective I'm really into cars like BMW X3/X5 and similar/competitor SUVs. But I keep hearing German cars are high maintenance, break down easily, expensive to maintain, not sure if my income can handle that even though I'd like to. However Im not like a stereotypical German car lover who drives crazily so I feel like they would last longer in my possession?

I see Lexus is a top brand but I feel like Lexus SUVs have ugly exterior bodies especially in comparison to Audi or BMW. I want something sleek, especially want premium interior features. I've seen Acura and Mazda as other options as well.

What's something reasonable but still sleek and worth the money for someone in my demographic?

Edit: I'm still currently financing my Hyundai. If I trade in and finance a different car I would be spending a hundred to a couple hundred more a month.
