The 2007 5 series models have redline at 6500rpm, but i saw the 2008 broschure(530i shown) and it had redline at 7000rpm. just wanted to ask if all the new 1's have redline at 7000rpm.

The 550i surely has the redline at about 6500 . 6300 or 6400 .

The redline is 6500 but on mine, the rev limiter bars never go away (hovering at the 6200/6300 rpm mark) ![Frown](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/sad.gif)
