I think most people do buy the 525 and 530 for their phenomenal lease rates that they give here in the States and also if you load up a 550 you can almost get into a 7 series which might be another reason people dont get them. Im happy with the 550 and I like that I have only seen a handful of 550's in NY so far... I like being unique.

Well if you get to loading out a 550 you start approaching close to the price of an M5 alot of people with that kind of money would just opt for the M5

My Ride: ED '07 530 soon to replace my ML500
previous: '00 540i6, '98 V70T-5, '95 318i, '89 Jetta, '79 Beetle Conv.
I had to order my 540i6 in 2000 to get what I wanted: Sport Package + Manual Tranny. Most 540s on the lot are non-sport/steptronics.
Nothing different locally when the 545/550s came out.
Althought I must say the local dealer usually has ONE manual sport car on the lot, but usually completely loaded. It's more fun to order anyway, IMHO.
