WTB: F10 with manual trans (xDrive, too?)

RichR · 04-11-2017, 02:07 PM

I'm hunting for an F10 equipped with manual transmission and, ideally, xDrive.

I realize it may take a very long time to find one so, I'm prepared to wait. However, while manual transmission is a must, I might consider an exceptional RWD example.

The closer to Cedar Rapids, Iowa, the better. But, since there isn't one of these sitting on every used car lot, I'm open to travel.

Meanwhile, perhaps someone could tell me... What's the last model year BMW offered a manual transmission on a 5-series?

F10 includes a lot of models but AFIK no F10 was offered with manual trans together with x-drive in USA (same on F30). I think 2014 was the last year for manual trans 550i.

The E60/61 was the end of the manual transmission xdrive combination. I know there were still sticks in 2013, not sure about '14.

Patience and travel will help you. They're blissful with gears!

A bit far from Iowa, but let me know if you have any interest.
