Hi,

Which car is more reliable, reasonable running cost, better build and less problems?
This is because the car price wise is nearly the same when buying it from Japan/second hand car dealer. Neglect the factor of class level and usage.

Cheers...

If these cars have all been regularly service and properly maintained, with a reasonable mileage, the reliability should all be fairly similar.
In terms of popularity, the BMW 320i is perhaps the more commonplace, therefore this is the model which should be easier for the average mechanic to service and obtain parts for, so perhaps could be considered the one with the slightly lower cost of ownership.
