I wish people that have never owned these cars would shut their pie holes. Or, those whose experience is limited to one car. I've owned a bunch of them and had few issues. As in, can't remember the last time something went wrong.... I've owned plenty of Mercedes and BMWs, too. Either has been a vastly worse experience. The Mercedes parts costs will amaze you - far higher than the Porsches and Ferraris I've owned and the BMWs will nickel and dime you to death.
This is from a sample size of more than 20 cars, so draw your own conclusions. Like anything else, get a thorough pre-purchase inspection so that you don't buy a car owned by an ignorant, cheap idiot. I'll second the notion of an S8 from that era. Fast and comfortable. Capable of sucking the headlights out of a Mercedes or BMW from the same era, on real world roads.
