All high end cars = nice while the warranty is in effect.

Once that runs out, run like the wind or pay $$$.

I'd rather get a Z4 because I hate "fake" back seats. Either buy a car with seats or dont. But dont buy a car with a fake back seat where only a small child can fit (if that); so you can make yourself feel better by claiming its practical. My two cents. :)

I like audi, mbenz, and BMWs products, but reliability is what deters me from buying a german vehicle. I'm sure there are owners out there who have problem-free cars, but many dont.

That's one of the many things I like about the fit, yes it may not be the fastest or the most fun to drive or the most prestigious car, but every morning when I get up, I know that it will start, and work.
We ALMOST bought an Audi R8 over the GT-R, but typical German long-term electrical issues stopped us. If Audi worked on that, I'd buy one in a heartbeat. Actually, I'd buy any current Audi over any current Mercedes or BMW.
