new challenger 605 vs gulfstream 450 or 400

Hi all. I'm looking for a long, medium range jets and i need some real world advice. i'm looking at a new challenger 605. I would like to be able to take 8 pasengers to hawaii direct. then maybe onto new zealand via another fule stop. i would like to be able to have 1 fuel stop and be anyware in the world. I would buy a gs 550 but i'm to cheap. I'm a little worried about 605 customer service and reliability. plus some of thier interiors i have seen look cheap . i'm also looking at gs 450 more money but they seem ready to deal because of the economy. a friend of mine told me to get a gs 400 2002-2004 with 2000 hours or so. So i quess i'm asking opinions on these aircraft as far as safety first and quality of aircraft and reliability and real world range. thanks. for your help. jb (sorry i'm based out of scottsdale az)
