My Ride: 2006 BMW 550i
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

Congratulations man, u bought the best car around!!
But next time think twice before buying a car (your 550) cause trading in a 3 months old car is not very profitable i think.

WOW nice. Thats one way to mod a 550.
This is the guy I'm trying to prod into showing up for the Meet Saturday. Let's give him some encouragement!
Mighty fine car you got there, maxx_guy. Wouldn't it be nice to have a lot of people drooling over your new toy?
