Does anyone know a site to find updated E60 videos or M5 clips showing thier performance. I have found a few, but interested in more clips.. I recently ordered a 2006 550 SMG and eager to see ANY footage. Any help would be great!

Bit.torrent and Search, seem to be best way. I use Exeem client to download torrents.

Other is to try Google, but supply is very much limitted.

How did you order SMG? Thought this had been verified as an option not available immediately if at all on 550i?

All transmissions are being offered on the 550 (steptronic, SMG, manual). SMG is not available unit October production, which means orders cannot be placed until late August.. My dealer has my order posted; as soon as BMW allows SMG orders, my order will slip in.. Hope to have it early December! FYI: the 5 series SMG tranny is supposed to be smoother and more sedan-oriented than the original 3 series SMG...

Greetings SoCalRaven:

I too heard the same thing about SMG being available soon on the 550i. AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, the fact that it will be a *different* (Man I hope this translates to meaning better!!!) SMG transmission.

I'm located in Northern California, Silicon Valley area. I'm hoping to place my order in September. 550i *with* SMG of course!

Any word on how much above invoice your dealer will be charging? I'll be working on the $$ stuff soon.

Cheers!
-Tony
