I love how most of us are completely ignoring his $15-20k budget.
But that budget together with "very rich investors" doesn't make any sense to me. |

There is no manual, AWD F10 5-series. The E60 is not an option. At all. Or ever.

So, again, let me be very clear here: If it is bigger than a 3-series, it's not an option. It doesn't even matter if it's faster, better, more fun, and half the price. Edit: Also, having looked at the actual vehicle, if I wanted to spend that much money, I'd be shopping F30s.

Then you'll want the e90 with the improved AWD suspension. I think Equ and Sarafil (and probably you) know the MY for that. Mine is RWD.

Edit: And I'd prefer an N55.

Even the updated suspension crashes like the Hindenburg (except with more violence) over potholes and large road imperfections. Its the reason I only had my 335 for a few months. Everytime I caught a pothole I thought I destroyed the car. I was also going to say in my experience, the N55 is way more robust than the N54.
the E60 has a much better back seat and more comfortable ride. Looks be damned.
