Sure. Individual stories about various brands or origins don't really give you a true picture of what reliability is like. I mean I still see Yugos driving around from time to time.
And like I said, my supposedly reliable Japanese coup is burning oil like crazy. I've had Nissans now continuosly since 1984 and they have all been super reliable. Of course my coupe is still running like a champ and its going to the track again in Feb. But the engine in this model year has been plagued with oil consumption problems (I discovered this after I bought it, naturally) and it is very disappointing to me. I am probably going to trade it soon. I can keep adding oil every 1500 miles but I really don't want to own it when it finally loses compression and bites the bullet.
But, I may replace it with an 08 350Z GT (not known to have this oil issue).
