My Ride: E60 M5, F85 X5M
There's no such thing as an M5 with an automatic transmission. In 2006 it was only offered in SMG which has a Drive mode where it'll auto shift but it's not actually an automatic. The shifts are very jerky and unexpected. In 2007 they added a 6 speed manual. Again, no true automatic.

Oh okay. Thanks. I thought it came in auto because all the M5's listed where I live are all 2006 so I guess I got confused.

EDIT: Apparently I can't post in the classifieds since I just joined. I'm in Pennsylvania. PM me or reply this post (or on the M5 forum). Here's a link to it on the M5 Board forum:
