My Ride: 2006 BMW 550i
Wink

I was thinking about all the different MODS for my 550i:

1. M Aero Kit
2. M Deck Lid Spoiler
3. M Deck Lid Finisher
4. M 166 Style Rims
5. Toyo 285 rear and 245 front tires
6. M Sport Steering Wheel
7. Round Air Bag Module
8. M Paddle Shifters with the MOD Kit to work with AUTOMATIC.

The cost was really high, even with all the nice discounts I was getting, and it still wouldn't be an M.

SO Guess, what, I TRADED in my 3 months old 550i and BOUGHT a BRAND NEW M5 FULLY LOADED. ALL OPTIONS AVAILABLE. Will add some photos soon and change my SIG.... and will start posting on the M5 BOARDS.......

I AM COMPLETELY HAPPY NOW
