The whole thing would be pointless if everyone starts voting in cars that they have heard have failed.

I agree with Clem and added an '11. It belonged to a close friend who is not a member of forums. I know the car well and have tracked it myself before I bought my '11.
His was a 2011 E92 with 16000 miles, stock except for SS brake lines. He had participated in several HPDE events and was on VIR coming through a turn at 100 when the number 5 cylinder exited the engine, creating a large fireball that melted the back half of his car.
I do know that he frequently had that car over 100 mph and it has seen 170 (ED car, no speed limiter). I also suspect some of his high speed jaunts on the way to work in the am were done before the car hit normal oil temps.
On the plus side, BMW bought it back from him after repairing it at a very fair price.
