Sadly a 2000 ML 320 which had been rated as one of the most unreliable cars ever made. I went off roading all the time with it and only had 1 issue which had a recall on it and I was too lazy to get it done and it failed on me one day. (power steering clamp).

So far my most unreliable has been my current 07 328i which has been in the shop for 23 days for major issues.

96 Ford Ranger 4x4. Whoever thinks American cars are not reliable, you're living in the past. That truck never saw a wrench and I would beat the hell out of it. It was my first car, bought it new when I was 17. Last for 200k miles before I finally sold her. I had other cars at the time, and didn't need the truck any longer.

Least reliable car... Hmm... Tie between my current 335 and the 350Z. The damn beamer is in the shop every other month for something... But I still love her..

My Integra was good so was my Supra..

2000 Accord V-6. Hands down best ever. 1991 Camry V6 was close, as my college beater.

Worst ever? The 2 company Impala's I had to drive. They never passed a repair shop they didn't want to visit.

1989 Oldsmobile Cutlass Ciera. Got nearly 300k mi out of that car. At that age, parts would understandably wear out, but she never failed to start in the morning, or keep going once she was running. I loved that car.
