550i is dead last?

Yes, 545i is grey (look the OEM wheels) maybe it is the driver who failed his 550i . and I remember those cars are from e60.net members too.

i have a 545 and i test drove a 550 about 2 months ago - my .02 are that the 550 feels more responsive and quicker at lower speeds betweek 35 - 65, more torque maybe is the explaination??. At higher speeds 70+ i think they feel somewhat similar when being pushed. My 545 is fully OEM under the hood and so was the 550. What i did like about the 550 were the comfort seats, i don't have those seats and they were really soft !!
