My Dealer tells me the 550i will get the new valvetronic and be availale next Fall for the 2006 MY. No specs on the engine for now. No 550xi version announced yet either.

Someone I know just got the X5 4.8 and he sreams loudly at the gas station. Great engine but I can't see BMW going to a gas hog engine on their 5 or even 7 series. (M5 excluded of course)
