In reality, it's just that the forum is a place to go WHEN YOU HAVE problems, therefore a huge bias of problematic cars show up on forums.

Other than me, and a few others, I RARELY see a happy post that's titled " I hit 200k! yay!" I see 100 posts each week that say "My biturbo v8 engine is misfiring? What's up? It's never left NYC, and only gets driven 20 miles in rush hour city traffic a day, do you think my engine is super happy with me?"

knock on wood I beat mine daily down backroads and at 132k it seems to be holding together. I think at some point I will do a rebuild, this thing does drink oil, and I am ok with it, it is by far not the worst oil using motor I have ever daily driven. So yes, I think you are very correct here.
