The time has come to sell the trusty two-door 325 to make way for something a bit larger for my
growing family. I always had it in my mind that when this time came, I'd buy a used Volvo
station wagon because it had a lot of the qualities I wanted: roomy and boxy, safe, reliable,
relatively quick, and a manual transmission. After looking around a bit, I've found that the newer
Volvo wagons are a bit smaller than they used to be and the majority of them have automatic
transmissions. The few manuals I've found go very quickly.
Thus, I've turned my attention to the BMW wagon. Quite a bit more expensive, but, again, I have
had trouble finding a used one with a manual transmission - in fact, I've yet to see anything but
an automatic 5-series wagon advertised for sale. My question: does BMW sell a 5-series wagon in
the US with a manual transmission?
