What Can I get for $20k, issues to be aware of?

I have no more than $20,000 to spend on 135i. Heres what I'm looking for:

N54 Engine
Less than 70k miles
Coupe, not convertible
Manual
Preferably sport package

Is it realistic to find one with less than 70k miles for that price? The resell seems to be very high on these vehicles.

Also Ive heard there are some reliability issues with the ones manufactured in 07 and 08? Should I stay away from these and try to get a 2009?

Thanks for the help! I currently own 2 N54's (335i, 535i) but havent had any experience with a 1 series.
