| i got my 1996 e36 323i manual for $14,500 had 120,000k's took a long time of haggling and quite a while to find in the good condition its in but they are out there... plus its faster than a 325i :P... i dont think you'll get anything decent with the 2.8L or more engines post '92 in aus for under 17k... there might be the odd one around but it'll be a tough search. (323 has the m52 engine same as the 528 just 2.5L instead of 2.8... also same bore different stroke so i think the capacity difference is due to crankshaft??) all depends what your after... even a 523i might be slightly cheaper.
