That x5 on cargurus is an automatic anyway.

The original listing said 6 speed manual.

You'll see that a lot while looking. About 3/4 of those listed as manual are autos. Just look up the vin on bmwvin.com or wherever it redirects to now, and it will show the transmissions and all options.

Took me a few months to find mine, but they're out there (moreso when you're not looking!)

I agree and it's frustrating.

Thanks for the vin info, it's been awhile since I've been in the bimmer market and forgot about doing that.
