Hello
I'm a new member here, check out my introduction : http://forums.e60.net/index.php?showtopic=...view=getnewpost
So let's me introduce you our BMW 550i !
There are only 70 BMW 550i's in France, it's a very rare car...
We bought it in January 2007 and so far, we're very satisfied with this car.
That 4.8 V8 is just amazing.
The car has only 20.000 miles.

As you see, the exterior color is "Carbonschwarz metallic". In the interior, it's a rare color : "Tr?ffelbraun" which seems like brown.
We have Sport seats, which hold us very well. Our 550i is really FULL options, the only option which is missing is the night vision :
We have the Head-Up Display, the Pro Logic 7 Sound System, the sunroff, heated seats front and rear, the activ cruise control, curtains sunshade for rear windshield and rear window, Professionnal Navigation system, 6 CD's charger, ///M Pack exterior, TV, bi-xenon headlights and adaptive, voice command, automatic Steptronic transmission, Park Distance Control, active steering AFS, Servotronic, Bluetooth, remote control for garage door and alarm.
I have a lot of photos, I'll try to post some.
I also made some videos, some people may know me as "JackNapier19" on YouTube.
I'll post the videos later.
Greetings from Paris,
Armen

A beautiful car, in a beautiful city (perhaps the most beautiful city in Europe IMO).
Yes, the 550i is very rare in Europe. I guess most people in France would go for a 535d if they have a big budget for an E60. Diesel is extremely popular in France, isn't it? In The Netherlands 550s are pretty rare too, I guess even rares than M5s.
Enjoy the car and your home city!

Thanks timewa ![Wink](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/wink.gif)
Yes, Paris is a wonderful city, maybe the most beautiful city in the world.
As you said, most people who have money to buy an E60, will take a 535d.
Yes, diesel is very popular in France. There are lots of 525d, 530d and 535d.
There are a few M5. I've seen about 30 different M5 in France and no 550i !
So yes, particularly in France, 550i is far more rare than M5.
PS : we went to Holland, to Delft (we loved it), Amsterdam, Den Haag, with the 550i. Besides, photos just up your message have been taken in Kinderdinjk.![Wink](https://5series.net/forums/images/smilies/imported/wink.gif)

Diesel is popular everywhere in Europe. In France just french cars are popular.
