Supposedly brand new ZF S5D manual transmissions on eBay
I was surprised to see that supposedly new 5-speed transmissions are for sale on eBay shipping from Germany. Freight is brutal but total cost seems surprisingly reasonable (around $3k).

Is ZF still building these or are these an old stock somewhere?

Still building I believe. I think some Ford trucks use it or maybe it was the 6 speed. Truly can't remember....

Shipping costs more than the transmission itself ......

My buddy has an E46 M3 and his 6-speed manual transmission failed on him, so he just bought a brand new one for the low low price of about $10,500... so this is a great deal
