I have a black/black 2009 M-Sport 6MT Nav sedan with 2018 M3/M4 calipers all around and VTT GC 2.0 turbos going on next week. I wasn't really looking to sell it though

Extremly rare. Your really searching for a unicorn (especially for less than 15k) or you need to dump the m-sport option. Or buy an auto version and do an auto to manual conversion.



Only 1 e90 LCI, M-sport, Manuals are for sale on cargurus nationwide search.

Zero e90 LCI, M-sport Manuals for sale at cars.com however, there are some non-sports.

Zero e90 LCI, M-sport Manuals for sale on ebay

Zero e90 LCI, M-sport Manuals for sale at autotrader

Zero e90 LCI, M-sport Manuals for sale at carmax

Zero e90 LCI, M-sport Manuals for sale at carvana


This is your best option under 15k which to me seems cheap compared to how rare this combination is.

I know where a unicorn is...

Guys with cars like that typically know what they have and don't want to sell to just anyone. They tend to keep them in their stable instead; kind of hard to give up something that nice. I was supposed to buy it three years ago and he backed out last minute. Hence why I have a N55 Auto M Sport instead of a N54 LCI SGM 6 Speed M Sport w/ every imaginable option.. one day he'll sell it though.

Honestly it is either luck or patience If you want a factory M-sport + 6spd E90 at a reasonable price. My old car got written off so I looked around and found none; Moved onto looking for a M-sport 135/E90 M3 (E92 isn't my thing). BUT late on a friday 1 showed up and I cleared my schedule and went 30 mins before they opened on saturday morning.

09 E90 M-sport 6spd RWD (low km, never winter driven and no tech packages was a huge bonus). There was a line up behind me when I got back from the test so I had to pay full asking price. I can also say it is absolutely worth it and it would take something big to get me out of this car

ALSO Id consider a M-sport conversion. We have another E90 w/ sport package that the original owner did some M-sport/M-performance exterior parts and it was much cheaper. Leaves lots of room to source parts.

I totally agree. Even more rare is the Msport/Mtech 6MT xDrive (N54 LCI 2009/2010).

[e90bravo]

I may have what you're looking for...

I didn’t think they were that rare.. I found a few in the south on Craigslist. Just didn’t agree to a price with the owners.

Any e90 n54 with a manual transmission will be overpriced. Automatics probably are outproduced compared to manuals at a 1:4 ratio (just a guess based on supply I've seen for sale). Adding special features to like xdrive, lci, m-sport make it even more rare.

The reason the prices were high with the ones you found locally have to do with how rare they are. It's honestly cheaper to buy an auto with all the bells and whistles you want then swap in a manual. Alot of people have done it on our bmws and becuase of how many autos there are the prices vary alot giving you different options to pick from.

If you want an xdrive ignore msport since there is no supspention changes, but if you want rwd and want the msport suspension, either up your price till you can buy one or wait a while keeping tabs on all websites waiting for that unicorn to pop up in your proce range.

Good luck!

I found a e92 xdrive 6speed good miles lemans blue. It was perfect but with a 1yr old do not really want a coupe right now. I had a 11 335i 6 speed didn’t have Idrive but was M-Sport and I loved it. I might adandon my search and just do a turbo e36m.

There's a pretty sweet E90 in HSV I know about... just sayin.

Lmao, ok bro.. Apparently you've been looking for this exact car since February of 2014, but yeah, five years of searching surely means it's not a rare/unicorn type of car lol...

Just to remind you
your opening post stated that you wanted an LCI 6MT E90 M-Sport that's modded for under $15k.. Good luck with that..

That’s cute you went and checked out my past threads but you must have missed where I sold a 2011 M-Sport with a Vvt stage 2 turbo last year.. I bought a car I was looking for had a baby and sold it. Baby is older wife went back to work so looking for another. I am not in a rush I don’t need a car it’s more of a toy then anything. It will come. Thanks for you concern though.
