I have an 07 RX8 that is known for bad coils, fuel pumps, and shocks, and I put more durable mods on them.
I had a 73 RX3 Mazda with same bad parts.
BMW is a whole different ball of wax to Japanese cars.

Yeah, but one time I had to wait 2 weeks for a plastic radiator piece to be shipped from Japan, for my RX-7. I wouldn't use an RX as an example of a reliable or problem-free car, exactly.
A lot of cars have their, um, quirks, or weak spots, but some brands are worse than others. And unfortunately, the Wankel engine just was more finicky....
Now, if you're talking Toyota or Honda, it's crazy how reliable those can be.
