In my expierience, cars that run a lot of miles, have few engine problems, and I figure these two have great engines. Looking for a new driving expierience, but need it on the road, not the shop. What is the the right car?
If you go to edmunds.com and look at TCO figures, BMW's are clearly the wrong car to use as they have an over-the-top cost per mile to operate. Hate to say it but that's where Japanese cars shine.

imho no, this is not the right car. Not when the vehicle is to be your means of earning a living.
