Hi guys, I cant believe it but I finally found a fully loaded 550 with all options possible. I will pick it up on Saturday in California. I live in Las Vegas. I get to drive my baby home Yahoo!!! I have been reading on this forum for over a year and was worried about quality issues but one test drive in the M5 first then the 550 sold me. I think most of the 550 owners are not having as many issues as the 545 owners once had knock on wood.
I wanted to read the owners manual and get used to I drive before I pick her up so I can be used to the controls when I drive it.
Specs on the car are.
Silver grey/black
sport pack
Premim sound
cold pack
auto tran
active steering
comfort seats
comfort access
rear sunshade
rear electric sunshade
fold down rear seats
naviagtion
HUD
satellite radio

Check out the Information section on the E60 Information Network home page (click on the header on top of this web page). There is a 2006 U.S. Owner's Manual in pdf format ... not for the 550, but close enough for now.
Congrats on getting a 550 - it's an amazing machine.

The ONE CAUTION I have for you is the Active Steering in town. Be very careful of cutting corners too close, especially if you are pulling to the right of traffic to take a right on red, tight around a corner. The last thing you want to hear is the crunching of a rear wheel/tire against that curb.
Otherwise, enjoy it.
Cheers,

For me the active steering came natural, It didnt take me more than a couple of small turns to get used to it and think it is great. Aside from a rattle or two, I havent had any issues with my car. You will love this car. Did I understand corectly thst you also test drove the M5, if so how did the 550 compare. GOOD LUCK AND HAVE FUN!!!
