My Ride: 07' 550i sport; Sapphire Black/Auburn; sport package; steptronic; navigation with R.T.T.I.; heads up; cold weather package; Logic-7; BMW MOST ipod kit; Motorola V3 snap-in adapter; rear heated seats and rear shades; anthracite headliner; sirrius sat. radio; M-aero kit; OEM style 166 Wheels with 245/35-19 front and 285/30-19 rear Michelin PS2s.

For anyone who has not driven an X6 5.0 or new 7, the twin turbo is another thing all together. The 4.8 in the 550 is an excellent motor, but I'm guessing the F10 will be in another league. Perhaps like 99' 540 vs. 09' 550i. Adding 100+ ft. lbs. of torque - at 1300 rpms! is like shaving a 1/2 ton off the gross weight.

As for first year quality control, the 5er GT goes into production 6 months before the sedan. Guinea Pig!

I love the new dash, and can't wait to get a 2011 550 xdrive.

I thought that the F10 would not hit the showroom till mid to late 2010 and even then I would think there would be E60's hanging around with large discounts in feb 2010
