Good luck. Finding a manual transmission touring is not easy.

I've got a 325it sport w/manual, it took 3 years to find a nice one. I absolutely love it, but now that I have it, I'd rather have a 5 series. The 5 would be bigger thats all.
Check the wagon thread, I'm positive a 5 series wagon w/sport package and manual was recently posted. Dean

yeah, they are out there. I can fly, but can't drive back 2k miles. At least not for another month. then we'll see.
So...I guess I'm looking for one in the SE, and I would like a 8-9-10 out of 10, if you know what I mean. If any of ya'll could reach out to someone you may know, I would appreciate it. Thanks, ~Chris |

I've seen 'em, they're actually not as rare as some are suggesting. You're talking about a 528i or 525i wagon, right?

No. But I'm not looking. Do a multiple CL search using the terms manual, then 5-speed, etc., for a 528it and a 525it.

i've been looking, using CL, autotrader, ebay, and the forums as well. Thought I'd just throw it out here, maybe someone knows someone, who might know someone, who maybe tomorrow decides they want out of their wagon.

Automatic in Phoenix - I think it's overpriced, but looks like a nice one.
2003 BMW 525iT WAGON Did you see this one that closed on Ebay last week? http://www.adoos.com/post/4313244/2002_bmw_5series_525it_

The one on eBay was thrashed and got bid-up to $8300, so the silver one w/ 30k fewer miles and one year newer, (plus doesn't need a complete $5k re-spray), is really priced right.

BMW interiors don't tend to wear well, especially the leather. You won't find many at 100k that look as good as a comparable Mercedes, Audi, Porsche, etc. Leatherique has great kits to refurb leather seats that work quite well and are DIY friendly, I did an entire E36 interior with one and it turned out great.
