I've probably told this story before. I recently sold my last (of two) 325i (s-plural). It had about 450K, had an electronic gremlin I spent a few hundred bucks trying to find with no luck. Probably needed a new harness. Would run great until it warmed up then would die, would not start til a day or two later.

I loved me the 5 speed on that car ... except during rainy, short days, traffic would get very heavy, I'd br crawling home for 30 to 60 minutes in the dark and my left foot really started complaining about that stiff clutch. That ankle is a bit tender from a few two many sprains over the years. I developed techniques for minimal shifting at stop and go speeds.

I may find another cherry someday, something just broke in with about 200K, they are still out there, definitely with a 5 speed but it won't be a daily driver.
