OK guys I've got it down to these 2 options !
What are the advantages to paying the extra for the 550i
?
Thanks

 

Have you done a search for all the different leaks that a 545 has that are supposedly fixed in the 550? If not do so and thats the major difference.

 

So basically the 545 leaks and the 500 doesn't?

 

They both leak but their is possibly less leaks with a 550. The thing to reeally look for is good maintenance records. A 545 that has had all the major things that can go wrong fixed would be better than a 550 that hasn't.

 

I found a 550i for a real good price except it has no options!
What would I be missing other than NAV with this car?

 

Post a link if you can.

 

Here is a link to the ad.

2006 BMW 550I, Silver on Black leather/sunroof, Cold Air - Toronto (GTA) Cars For Sale - Kijiji Toronto (GTA) Canada.

 

Looks like you're missing NAV, rear sunshades and the Sport suspension system.

On a side note, that front bumper has definitely been reshot. I would proceed with extreme caution given that. Also, the kidney grills are not OEM, but a black aftermarket, and is indicative of someone who pushed the car for its performance aspects. Its getting to that kilometer range where it definitely needs some attention paid to the seals, but then again the price is fantastic, almost too good to beat, so my question would be why is the price so low?

I get a bad feelings about this one m8.

 

Yes at that price it should have been gone by now!
