CamB 48 Report post Posted August 25, 2010 It is a pretty good price - awesome colour. The SMG may put people off. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thorburn 121 Report post Posted August 25, 2010 (edited) Do the smg and 6 speed use the same gearbox? Ediot: small search and found they are. SMG to manual conversion appears do-able as well Edited August 25, 2010 by bbs Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimbo01 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2010 link This does look pretty damn good, and may represent the ultimate mix of practicality, perfromance, and economy. I did consider selling my 740 to buy this. I'ts been advertised for many months. Instead of gone nuts doing projects on my 740. If i had a spare $17,000 this would be mine!

CamB 48 Report post Posted August 26, 2010 whats so bad about smg? i have never driven one. I haven't driven an E36 one but I understand they're a bit agricultural. The bigger issue is they aren't exactly known for being reliable and any ///M part is expensive to replace. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Silver Fox 43 Report post Posted August 26, 2010 Kayne Barrie can convert to full manual, not too expensive either. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
