Looking to buy a early/mid 2000's 325/328

Ok, I'm all into my 335i and know every quirk they have. But I'm looking to get me a cheap daily driver for work. Can someone give me the skinny on what years have what issue, is one year better than the other etc... I need the cliff notes on these cars for shopping purposed. Looking for a 2003-2006 3 series 4 door, prefer manual trans but am open to a auto. I'm just worried buying such an old high mileage car with an auto may cause problems for me. Sticks are either good or bad. Clutches wear and gear oil is cheap. Any help would be appreicated. No mods other than tint. Daily driver for work. would like to buy one just under 100k miles realistically. I need to get out of my high dollar Lincoln and into something cheaper and funner to drive. lots of hwy driving... I love my lincoln, but it's an expensive car and I really love the 3 series, so much more engaging driving experience. I do all my own work, so maintenace on a older well kept 3 should be an intial sorting and I'm good for a while. No mods, just drive it.
