> Odd since BMWs are not known for reliability It really depends on the model. When a company produces 2 million cars a year and has a shitload of models in their lineup, some are going to be problematic. For gasoline engine, for example, the B48 engine is highly reliable [1] I'm one of those "oddballs" who'll never ever buy a new car because to me buying a new car is deciding to be a guinea pig. I buy cars that are 3 to 5 years old, once it's known if the model is a reliable one or not. Take, say, a used 4-series "Gran Coupé" with the B48 engine. It's a complete bargain, ultra-reliable and one heck of a sweet ride. I drive higher-end stuff but we picked that for my wife two years ago and it's really a good car.
