Question E53 3.0i 6MT Enclosed Car Trailer Towing

Don't mean to sound like beating a dead horse dead, but I couldn't find explicitly what I was looking for after a decent amount of searching.

Bought a 2005 3.0i 6MT to tow a Spec Miata with. I want to buy an 18ft v-nose aluminum enclosed trailer to tow it with - trailer 2200lb + car 2300lb + extras 500lb = 5000lb total

Not worried about the weight but drag with the enclosed v-nose. Should I be too concerned towing in New England? (rolling hills, couple steep here and there)

I've seen boats, smaller v-nose trailers on here, plenty of open car trailers.

Any enclosed trailer anecdotes with a 3.0i manual transmission?


Thanks!
