I agree but this was a pretty pissy topic, we may be to blame for setting a bad example.
We? What did I do?

By the way, P, I still owe you one for taking care of that little Audi TT thing...let me know if there is anything I can do to help end this 535/550 debate.

Lighter engine, everything else the same, and only a few pounds.

Actually almost 300lbs lighter...that is substantial! IIRC 280 lbs heavier.

Per the book, the 550i is 265 pounds heavier than the 535i. The weight dist is the same so its ~ 130 pounds front and rear. Don't forget that if you add parking sensors, the M aero kit, and 19 inch wheels to the 535i to match the 550i, you'll eat up a lot of the weight difference.
