New 335I Sedan 6 Speed......

I am finding it very hard to find, all dealers around me have auto's only. Anybody know of a dealer in the Southeast that may have a selection with manual trans? Thanks

Talk to a SA, they should have access to some sort of global US inventory and get one over for you if it satisfies your requirements. The SA I talked to earlier could search through a list of thousands of cars and even get one over from the East Coast (live in SF Bay Area) in about a week after agreeing on the price and doing some paperwork. At least that's what he told me, after he saw how "picky" I'm about the configuration of the car. :-)

You probably have as good a chance of hitting the Lotto. Order one like I did, the wait will be worth it. There is probably a little better chance of finding a 328i manual.

Go to Edmunds.com, you can do an inventory search there and they stay pretty up to date. I just did and there are about 6 listed, but those are around Ft. Lauderdale/Pembroke Pines/Miami area.

Good luck - I had to order mine to get a 6MT. I frequently drive between Birmingham and Columbia, MO - last Sept when i wanted to replace my leased E90, there were no manuals (Sport or M-Sport) along that route

Was a long 14 week wait, but worth it when the car is exactly what you wanted
