Most RRs are absolute nightmares, but so long as you're not ignorant to that before purchase, most will be happy.
Actually, when I spend more $ on a vehicle, my expectation is higher. The problem is IMO, most high end vehicles are European and there lies the potential problem with reliability. No question maintenance is more expensive for European vehicles, which should not be tied to reliability.
