It is funny you mentioned this! Another member and I were just talking about how much it would cost to bury a full size SUV! I have a 540i/6, but my new found love, despite it being an automatic, is my Imola Red 4.6is!!! BMW should have really put the 6 speed's that reside in our E39's in these V8 E53's!!! I actually got my 4.6is specifically to do the manual conversion, but I got mine for half a song and it was on the road in a week... Gathering parts still... Enjoying it until all are obtained...
Cheers!!!

You've clearly given it more thought than I have. If you come up with a number to have it interred, let me know so I can use it for my estate planning :D
I'll be following your progress on the Getrag 420G swap closely. Someone in my local BMW group was selling one of those superb boxes the same day I bought the X5 last week. It definitely got me thinking, but I already have far too many irons in the fire. In another life maybe...
