I've spent $100 bucks on my S2000 in 80k miles in and out of warranty work. Buddy of mine replaced shocks and 2 control arms on his at 190k miles, everything else is original
I'm a Honda fanboy myself, but i dont believe for a second that Hondas are any more relable than BMWs. For every horror story I hear about BMWs I hear one for Honda.

Point in case:

What about the transmission issue with the new crop of Acura sedans?

Flip side, I know lots of people that own e92 m3s and have never even heard of the rod bearing issue because they don't feequent internet forums.

It's the internet, of course you are going to hear people complaining. What did you expect?

An engineer's perspective: when you push the limits of technology you should expect reliability issues. If we extend model cycles reliability numbers will increase, but then the forums will be full of posts bitching about the fact that it takes BMW eons to release a new car that is not simply a repeat of the last generation.
