So after selling my 04 525i on Tuesday of last week and being without her for a few days, I picked up a 07 550i on Saturday. The car is fully loaded except Nav & cold weather package.
All I can say is WOW!!!!

It's good to be you !!!!!

550 is a big change from a 525. Pics are a must...

BMW V8's are awesome, can rev like a BMW should and pull hard from down low like only a V8 can. Congrats...

Thanks guys for all the kind words.
Im totally in love with the car. Yes my 525i was nice, but 550 is a beast compared to the 525i. I will take some pictures later today and put them up.
Thanks again for the kind words.
