I've checked a few of the sites can't find a manual one

Perhaps it's because it's more of an elderly persons car and they don't prefer manual

How is a V10 M5 for elderly people? :D I heard they are very rare but i was hoping it wasn't another great car that didn't make it to South Africa

They weren't available locally in manual. Only the US market AFAIK. There are a few manual swaps that have been done but details are scarce

Yes, apparently only USA market got them. I have an article in BMWCar mag where they drove one and were not at all impressed by it. Iirc, the heading of the article was something like" White Elephant" as it was a white E60 M5. Probably only available in left hand drive as well.

There were no manuals spec'd for our market, there are a few local guys who've done E92 M3 gbox swaps and Tune Tech is working on a DCT which should be one helluva good update!
Sorry man, you're not gonna find a manual... Unless you're thinking of importing? :rollsmile:

On a side note, go to the new members intro area forum and post an intro thread on yourself and cars you drive. (preferably with pics of them)
