Won550

Hi All,

In terms of acceleration, how does the 550i compare to the 335 coupe?
0-60 and rolling?

ProMed

stock vs. stock 0-60 the 335i is faster by a tenth or two, no idea about rolling. If the 335 (or even a 535) has a cheap tuner on it the 550 will get beat in both 0-60 and rolling start no matter what mods the 550 has unless it is a supercharger or something.

Hope that helps.

I've seen modded 335i beat stock M5 off the light, eventually the M5 catches up and passes though so I'd assume it's the same for a 550i lol.

I'd say that a 335 will take a 5er off the line due to weight. From a roll, idk. Two different classes tho. The 335 is fun and nimble, 550 is spacious yet powerful.

from a roll, the 550i will win. I had a chance to test this with a buddy on the autobahn. did not get video though but I was able to stay ahead of him, and at speeds greater than 90mph or so, i started walking him.

at regular highway speeds, i think it really is just a case of who mashes on the gas first, because they are pretty close. at higher speeds is where the 550i earns its money.

unmodded 335i coupe, of course.
