did you actually read the link you posted?

"The BMW M3, which ranked third in the reliability survey, is not recommended because the magazine has not tested it. Other versions of the BMW 3-series are recommended, though."

Yes. What they mean is: "We have a lot of data showing us the car is reliable, but since we have not driven it, we can't tell you how much fun/not fun/ etc. it is to drive, so we can't tell you to go buy it. What we can tell you, is that those who have have had good luck with it lasting."

I thought the same as you until I realized that 1 press-car doesn't = a reliability study, and the reliability study was a survey of many cars.

The 2010 mustang and the 2002 mustang are worlds apart. I worked for Ford (sales) in 2005 when they switched over. Drove the new, drove the old. Wow.

You got that right. But my Z still is not louder than the newer Stangs. But the SN95 Stangs were very noisy.

And about the M3, I read an article from the M division chief and he stated they moved to the 8 as they has extracted all they could from the I6. It was a good article, but is about two years old now. BMW had to keep up with Audi and the RS4..... No matter what they did to the I6, it would not be enough to keep up with the RS4. I think the CSL got 360 or 370 out of the CSL. Not enough..... I was pretty up on that whole discussion as, at the time, I was planning to get a M3.
