Since my knowledge about the different civilian aircraft models is
somewhat
limited I'd need some hints. For pilot training I'm looking for aircrafts
that fullfils these requirements:

- retractable tricycle landing gear
- single piston or turboprop engine (high performance)
- tandem seat configuration with canpoy
- stick controlled
- left-hand throttle
- IFR capable
- allowed in the US for flight training use


In the US you can use any aircraft you want for flight training. However,
you will not find aircraft such as you described generally considered to be
trainers. In fact, most flight schools would think you are nuts.

Try starting out in something a little more reasonable (and insurable) and
working your way up.
