My Ride: 2008 BMW 550i Sport Carbon Black Metallic/Cream Beige Manny tranny and other stuff Recently gone, but never forgotten: 2005 Ford Mustang GT (hence the name) Torch Red/Crimson Manny tranny and every option available for that year 2002 Chrysler 300M Special Brilliant Black/Light Taupe/Dark Slate Autostick and goo-gobs of neat features that I will sorely miss

Don't know if this has been announced here already or not, but...

It's gonna continue to be called 550i. Yay! (I guess.)

Seven kept the name. Five will probably keep it too. The real question is 2009 or 2011?

the naming convention is a few years behind.
they will catch up.
remember when the 740ils actually had 4.4 liter engine but yet called 740 while it should have been 744 or 745.

same here, bring it in 2011.
let me see 2004 + 7 year lifecycle = 2011 first model year available later 2010.
I can live with that. Especially with the new I-drive I am sure I might get the f10 if it looks good outside.
