Favorite 9mm ? That would be a toss up between my Browning High power and my CZ75B. Love the feel of the HP just a little better, but the 75B's trigger gets the edge.
Both are 100% reliable and very accurate if I do my part.
GONRA's "breech locking reference collection" has 35 9mm Parabellum's.
Many were shot a LOT ("well broken in MilSurp") before I got them back in the "good olde days".
Most are reliable and shoot Just Fine. (Lugers are finicky though...)
"9mm" is a great auto pistol caliber. (Almost as good as .45ACP!)
Probably the most accurate was an early Walther P88 followed by a Browning Hi-power. The Ruger P89DC would be next and that is the one I kept since it was the most comfortable to shoot and it is my wife's favorite too. I have carried a KT PF9 for many years but it is not a favorite shooter. LOL I'd have to have 3 mags for the PF9 to exceed what the P89 carries in one (18).
All were about equal in the reliability department.
I would have to go with my modified Beretta 92FS Police Special.
Second place would be the Browning Hi-power. The Hi-Power grip is just a bit small for my moderately large hand though, and I don't like the magazine safety.
Third place would probably go to the H&K VP9 which I had occasion to shoot as a rental gun at a local range.
Honorable mention goes to my little Beretta mini-Cougar DAO.
Pistols I have not shot and am a little afraid to are the CZ-75 and the Walther PPQ.
I have heard many positive comments about the Taurus PT92.

I've tried a few 9mm: M&P9, Glock 17, CZ75, P07 Duty, Beretta 92 and PAMAS (the French under-license built Beretta 92), PX4, Jericho, MAC50 (the only 9mm single-stack I tried, but very nice gun and awful combat gun), P210, P228, FSP9 (the European name of the VP9) and of course my ex-USP and my current P30.
The one I prefer is obisouly the P30 (I was about to get a SFP9 and I finally changed my mind for a SA/DA than a strikerfire)
My two favorite were xd tactical and 92fs both were great range, home defense pistols
