I don't know how people can dog on BMW though when they're #1, #2 or top 10. And #1 best Premium sedan, 3 series. The outlier though is Subaru. #1 in CS and way below average in JD. And for the Honda fans, look at Acura. Yes, Honda may be OK but I still don't see how anyone can say Honda is so much better than BMW.

I had more problems with Honda and Acura cars then bmw’s. 2008 TLS engine seized. Warped brakes on all of them cause they are undersized. 2003 TLS xmsn died at 90k mi and was covered due to class action suit.
List goes on … Honda is using some cheapo parts and it is shown in their declining reliability. Just look up class action lawsuits.
e90 330i was amazing and not a single issue but I replaced water pump at 90k mi. Early n54 was rushed to market and was not sorted out but damn 2007 335i was a rocketship. The thing with bmw they support their cars over a long period of time and parts are never an issue.
Also, I looked at Guilia quad but got F80 over it. Just didn’t care for the ext design and auto xmsn and potential support issues. I like sharper design lines and damn those hips are awesome.
I can’t look at G80 and G82 is even worse. they are just too big like m5 size. just my opinion
