I know you don't want to hear this but as an F10 535 MT orderer/owner I wouldn't get it again, it just isn't a good match with a car of this bulk and doesn't really add anything to the driving experience. I've come from many BMW manuals and thought I'd never say this but the 8-speed auto is a much better fit. Don't fool yourself into thinking a 6-MT going to feel anything like the E60 versions you've tried out as it won't.

My car was for sale back from December 2013 - June 2014 (I had gotten an E90 to replace it) and got nary a bite and decided to keep it. Folks in this category just want loaded out automatics. You are also going to have problems dumping it at Carmax, they'll discount the MT (ask me how I know).
