I've been lurking on this forum for a while, and am about to buy my first BMW, so I joined up. I have found a 2010 e93 335i with a clean Carfax and solid dealer service history. It's has a manual transmission, 90,000 miles, and no IDrive. I can get it for $18,000 out the door. What are your thoughts on price? Any thoughts on a high mileage e93 in general? I love convertibles, but have never had a hard top.

My only hang up about the car is the no IDrive situation. My ideal car would have manual and IDrive, which seems to be a unicorn around here. I can't find a single one within 300 miles. Does the IDrive system really make that big of a difference? I never use navi, but the dash looks sort of empty without the screen. I will still have Bluetooth calling, right? The button for it is on the steering wheel, so I would suppose so.

Thanks for any advice! Looking forward to spending more and more time here.
