    Opinions on 2011 BMW 550I with manual transmission

    Hello all,

    I am looking at another 5 series after selling and missing my e39 manual trans car. I know F10's are rare birds with manual transmissions. I found a 2011 550I with a manual. Are these far more trouble to maintain then say a 535I? I had heard there were overheating issues and fuel pump leakage issues? Are they as reliable as say a 535? I wrench myself but I am not a mechanic (I currently work on my Mercedes and z4)...is the 550i more of a bitch to work on? This was a 3owner car with low miles. I appreciate all of your thoughts.
