Well, I didn't get the 911 I mentioned earlier- I got a better one: '04 911 Carrera with 9k miles, black on black. So far, I am extremely happy. No regrets.
But now driving our 550 and our 911 back to back, I am AMAZED by the power of our 550. The 911 is quicker to 20 mph, then the 550 is quicker from 20-40mph. After 40mph (where when pushing to 7,000 rpm's I shift from 1st to 2nd), it's hasta la vista, with the 550 in my rearview. Of course, the whole while, the 550 is enjoying bluetooth, 5 passengers, huge trunk, etc.!
Can't go wrong with either. For me, I am loving the 911. And I also enjoy toting the family in the 550.

PS I'll post pics of both soon.
