No it will not.... but have fun anyways...

Besides... even if it was there... it looks exactly like the 545 anyways.. except the rear badge and the engine size.

The 550 is not there but the new 760 is. The M5 is there along with another E60 I forget if it's a 525 or 530.

There is no 550 there. I saw an m5, 5 touring, and a 525. That m5 is so mean, i spent a good 10 minutes just looking at it

There is no 550 because the 550 is NOT official yet.
It is still JUST a RUMOUR!
There is NO OFFICICAL CONFIRMATION that it will ever come!

...actually, BMW NA did confirm it to me as official at the NY show

I was initially speaking to them inquiring about when the E63 would get the new engine as Im still very interested in that car, and while speaking with the BMW tech rep he told me that the E63 and the E60 will get the new 4.8 from the E65 in Sept, so thats official to me...

Well, we all know it will come. BUT, it is in fact NOT official yet.
Remember, BMW NA is NOT BMW Munich! It's ONLY official if Munich announces it!
There was and still is a lot of BS that BMW NA tells their customers. They have been proven wrong so often in the past that you can not say that ANY info coming from them is possibly official!
BMW NA stinks!
Don't trust them, they are just as bad as a lot of their dealers.
