How reliable are they?

It's my first post here. I want to get rid of my 01 330 ci which I have spent over 15,000 in repairs on since I bought it in 04 for 30k. I looked around to see what car I can find right now that looks as sexy as this one but also performs, and honestly... I can't find any! God, if it was reliable and they made the same exact car now, I would buy it, hands down!

But...

That's not the case. BMW's have proven to me how unreliable they are. I take it to the shop for 1 problem, I leave the shop with 3.

So.. on to my point.

I want to get the Z because I think it's a decent looking car with great performance. But I want this car to be my everyday car. I'm gonna drive it in the rain, snow, blizzard, etc. I need this car to last me 10 years. Is that too much to ask for? I'm aware of the 350z, but never really liked the body. The new 370 is much better imo.

Can any owners of the 350 vouch for the z's reliability? Consider the fact that I'm gonna drive it like a sports car, not like a Cadillac.
