Some drivers obviously do not have a BMW pocketbook for initial costs, service and repairs. Honda has a far better record for reliability than BMW models. Also, Accord's rivals include models such as: Nissan Altima, Chevy Malibu, Mitsubishi Galant, Toyota Camry, not BMW 5 Series. BMW 5 Series rivals include such models: Lexus ES (which is a far better looking, reliable, stylish car than 5 Series), Mercedes E-Class, Infiniti M (far more dependable than 5 Series, also cheaper). So please, leave the Accord where it is and leave the 5 Series where it belongs.

This is totally unfair! Obviously a BMW is going to perform better than an Accord! The BMW was designed specifically for performance! The Accord was meant to be a reliable family sedan, not an Autobahn racer! And by the way, luxury car or not, Honda and Toyota still beat BMW and Mercedes in reliability every year.
