Included is an image of what I believe is the 550i Sport.

Additional Images

Included is one of the back quartter of what I think is the 550i Sport, showing the wheels very clearly.

If that is the 550i sport, then I am glad I just ordered mine now to get the "old rims".

I'm sure its nice, but I dont think its "must have" over the present incarnation.

They made a great car even greater. My lease is up this summer and I can hardly wait. I am still intrigued by a diesel BMW. I wonder if the 5er will be offered with a diesel this year.

WTF - I leave for a few months and my 2007 550i becomes a 2008 550i minus the 19" wheels.

Typical that I buy a neew car and this happens.

Looks like I will have 3 years until can get 2010 e60 next. Worth the wait I believe.

Don't sweat it -- it's not like your car sucks now -- it's still as amazing of a machine as it was yesterday and it will remain one of the more amazing cars on the road until 2010, that's for sure!

Those rims are Style 172 which are currently available.

No more amber reflector built in the headlight. It's moved down to the bumper

I dunno. My initial impression is that I'm not digging the amber reflector on the bumper. It might change over time.
