Makes you think.....you can still find automatics around 100,000 miles for ten-ish. How much for a decent shop to do a manual swap?

One of the guys here will do it for $3500 or so depending on RWD/AWD including parts and labor

I encourage everyone to be open to considering the swap. You will have far more options to get a wagon you want. I did a small write-up on a rwd 6mt conversion here:

No sir. I didn't list her yet so the price wasn't posted. 15K OBO.

Many thanks to everyone who reached out directly to me about the car so far. Feel free to DM with any specific questions and I'll be happy to answer them. Some of you I couldn't reply because your inbox is full, JFYI.

Sounds like an exciting project. Congrats and good luck! Consider doing a build post. I'm sure people would love to see how things progress.

Having Jeremi do it?

Sending my RWD M Sport (purchased from this thread) up to OTP Automotive in Winder, GA for the 6MT swap as soon as they have sourced all the parts. Quoted $5,200 + tax for the job including new hydraulics and rubber parts; Valeo clutch kit with solid steel flywheel; AKG delrin shifter bushings.

I feel like a kid in October waiting for Christmas!

I would definitely go with a DMF instead of the solid flywheel. The transmission rollover clatter with be very annoying if not. A well worn DMF on an N5x makes rollover clatter as it is.

Dude, you're telling me!! I have been emailing with Jeremi since June of LAST YEAR... My car went up there about a month ago. We're still hunting for the perfect donor. I'm out to sea right now, should be home first week of June... All in, from the idea to the finished product of his work will be a full year!!!

I'm dying to drive my E91 335is!

Yeah, its a long time coming, that's for sure. However, it has been great emailing and learning from Jeremi, his knowledge is completely endless. I'm patient to get my project done by him, but also very excited and will get more anxious as it gets closer!

Sorry if this one has been shown - too far for me to consider, but 78,000 6 speed 2011 and, in today's world, a decent price.

Tasman Green is the best e91 color. Ever.

Price seems reasonable for the miles and 6MT.

Works for me, although I think your project will take a little longer than mine.

Jeremi is an awesome guy and builds the best wagons. I’ve had my jeremi built 335 6 speed msport for 1.5 years totally trouble free and it is BADASS. His garage is cleaner and more professional than any shop I’ve ever seen!
