[QUOTE="Game-R, post: 621035, member: 27709"] I think you have too many things working against you here. It's rare to find an E60 that wasn't bought for a lazy executive who only wanted the badge. Plus, it's likely that would be paying for bringing in, not only a gearbox and its clutch mechanisms, but a compatible ECU as well. You're gonna need a good contact in Europe who can hunt down these parts at half-cut shops. And let's not forget that you may also end up with a car with a slightly off suspension because of the gearbox weight differences. But, as V-man pointed out, its not impossible if you have enough of the dough. A little patience to wait for news of anyone else successfully executing this wouldn't hurt either. So ... time to prove just how much do you love your E60 :D [/QUOTE]
