Again, what's the worry on the suspension? My original 140k miles suspension is still driving as straight and somewhat tight as it did off the lot. Sure, it can make use of a new set of strut/shock, but it isn't sloppy or bouncy at the moment. The only weak point is if you get one with air suspension, which isn't on my stripper X
Did not catch he wants a stick, should be no issue with stick.

E38 E39 E53 share a lot of suspension components which are very know to fail.

My E38 needs some suspension parts replaced, first shop quoted me 3K, the other 2K.
