I had an E46 when it was new. Had it 3 yrs. I'd say reliability was ok although considering mine was under warranty it had it's fair share of issues. The engines are solid, it's just all the little things. After 3 years I had transmission issue, keyless entry was half working, ballast for HID died, and handful of service recalls.
Definitely not as bad as a benz or audi, but when things do go it does get expensive to repair.
I opted to go for a older japanese car (same era as e46) and have had less issues with it over my brand new (at the time) bimmer.
Gotta pay to play. All in all, great car to drive.
