Default First 5 series wagon

Hello! I am hoping to embark on my first BMW purchase ever. I am on the lookout for a late model 5 series wagon with a manual transmission. I am trying to learn as much as I can in the process. This will replace my Outback wagon, complement my 96 Volvo 5 speed wagon and dwarf my mid-80s Lotus. Thanks for listening.

Here are a few that I've come across in my search for a new wagon.... This Kijiji listing is a few days old, really nice looking M-Sport in Oxford Green:

2006 BMW 5-Series xi Touring Wagon - Regina Buy & Sell Goods - Kijiji Regina Canada.

Cars for Sale: 2010 BMW 535i xDrive Wagon in Melbourne, FL 32901: Wagon Details - 350104896 - AutoTrader.com

2010 BMW 5 Series Msport 6 spd. Manual Wagon

this last one is really good looking as well.

Good luck.

Really nicely equipped standard transmission e61 - first 2010 I've seen with the heads up display:

Thanks for the links. A few are gone already but the white eBay one is nice. I saw that one a few days ago and have been keeping an eye on it.

Another manual car just popped up - very low miles, price a bit high, but well optioned. Might we worth checking out.
