I’m not a conventional person by any stretch of the means. This is probably why I’m turned on whenever I see a large luxury sedan equipped with a manual gearbox. Like this BMW 730i for sale in Potsdam, Germany equipped with a 5-speed manual gearbox. This was the first year for the E38 7 series, and while we saw this engine and gearbox in the E34 530i, this 730i model was one that never made it here.

Those of us in the US of course won’t be able to consider this vehicle for another five years, as it has yet to cross 25 years of age. Most wouldn’t want a car this large with three pedals, but for someone who does a lot of highway cruising, the small V8/5-speed drivetrain would be a great combination.
