i always find it funny when people claim that BMW or other German cars are "unreliable". there will always be some level of maintenance, but you should expect that cars with more features/amenities and more powerful and complex powertrains and transmissions will require more maintenance than a 4cyl honda civic. those that claim lack of reliability are typically those that don't follow service intervals, dont allow the car to reach appropriate oil temps before beating on it, opt to use conventional vs synthetic to save money, or hell dont even change their oil. not saying that there aren't cars with faults, but the stigma is largely based on poor ownership habits.
i had a co-worker that would bash VW bc her new jetta broke down. come to find out that she didn't change the oil...ever. she went and bought an accord, thinking it would be more "reliable"......

in terms of reliability i don't think anything is touching a chevy v8 and even a supercharged chevy v8 will outperform and outlast anything else
