Guest Simon* Report post Posted June 8, 2009 They're ONLY SMG unfortunately Jordy That's why the E39 M5 and E92 M3 are way cooler Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 They did bring out a conventional Manual version in LHD didn’t they? The new SMG in these is all gravy anyways. That’s a seriously sharp priced car, being Jap allow for an extra 10k in conversions to Euro spec, even then it would be a bargain. Maintenance costs would scare the fork out of anyone on a sup 100k PA income though, can see so many of these M5’s turning into a pile of rubbish for that reason.

Mark 178 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 LHD Manual was only for the American market. Read an article in Total BMW about it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pjay 8 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 I wouldn't buy a $99000 car off trademe before first viewing it. So what the listing's not perfect. It is NZ new, thats a bonus Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jordyboy2 0 Report post Posted June 8, 2009 It is NZ new, thats a bonus And you get all this too The BMW Premium Selection Program provides every vehicle with 24 months BMW Factory Warranty and Service Inclusive: which covers all scheduled servicing: general repair costs and WOF's. Also included is BMW 24 hour Road Side Assistance for peace of mind motoring Which may verywell add up to lots of $$$$$$ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

|ncary 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2009 (edited) The only BMW I saw while in Kalgoorlie, WA was a M5 (E60 in the light blue colour, he gave it tits all the time too) And yes there are manual ones. But it's impossible in them to turn the DSC off.. Stops those useless americans maiming themselves though. Edited June 9, 2009 by Incary Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kiwi535 538 Report post Posted June 9, 2009 Goes to show Jerry Clayton's listing skills..........prolly listed it as a manual6 because they cant/didnt want to list it as "auto7". Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M3 Cab 0 Report post Posted June 9, 2009 Man these things are getting cheap, was offered an 05 NZ car done 35ks for less than $90k. Be a bloody nightmare without a warranty and they are hard to come by for M cars. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
