New Ride

I couldn't afford the real M5 so I decided to go with the M550i instead.

They look very mean, there are quite a few of them on the road all of a sudden. Big cars, to be sure, too big for me, but I understand their appeal.

My wife at some point wanted a 5, having driven the M3 for 15 years, but I called her attention to the size of our garage, and she listened. :)

Удачи!

Love BMW and was by the Munich factory last weekend. Love the M550i. So, what engine tweaks are planned? Have Dinan Stage 4 on the M-optioned 435i here and she's 450/425 at wheels. The power delivery is far more to my liking, and more of it, than the M4 or M3... and I saved a bundle too :-)

Great choice there going M550i!

Great choice! Love the 5 series. I’ve had an E60 535 and an F10 535. The new one looks amazing.
