Hi everyone, I picked up my new 550i on Thursday and I wanted to thank everyone on the forum for all the useful information that I have read here. I've been reading through this forum for about 2 months and it ultimately led me to going with another bimmer. I have had a 2003 M3 for the past few years and loved it. I wanted a larger car, with more technology, and also lots of power and I know I made the ultimate choice. I'm still learning the i-drive system and it seems that voice shortcuts are the easiest way to go. Anyway, just wanted to say hello.

Congrats & glad you could join us. The 550 is such a fantastic car ... I appreciate even more now at 7 months of ownership thatn I did when new. It just gets better.
