Yup, way back then, it was not only a requirement that all US-spec cars only showed a maximum of 85mph on the speedometer but 55mph also had to be highlighted (like in a different color or something -- you couldn't just have '50' and '60' shown with a tick mark between them to indicate 55, you had to actually have the number '55' shown.)
Not that I'm the oldest guy here but I'm betting there's a bunch of members here that don't remember those days...

Finally pulled the trigger...'08 Carbon Black 550i Sport. I already have 2500 miles and it has only been a little over 3 weeks.
Congrats Sam530
Great move. Now, all we need is pics!
PS. Keep your nic, it's as cool as not having the 550i badge on your trunk lid.
