I have had 3 BMW with I6 and 3 BMW with V8. E39 528i, E36 M3, E61 535xi, E70 X5 4.8i, E90 M3 and F90 M5. No reliability problems with either the I6 or V8 in my case. Of all those, I like the F90 M5 the most. Would have liked to have owned an E46 M3 and an E60 M5 (V10), but probably won’t at this point.
Also had a couple of the old big I6, a 73 Bavaria with late 3.5L conversion and 79 635csi also with late 3.5L conversion.
