Lol you can buy a used E36 5spd transmission for $500 any day of the week if you keep your eyes open.

Again go to BCBimmers.. plenty of indie shop.

If your friend is dumb and grenaded the transmission, and the shop wants a rebuild it from scratch then yes.. it can cost up to 4k.. but mostly in labour.
