My Ride: 2007 BMW 550i - non sport - comfort seats - active headlights -135m 18 inch wheels
Default New guy and an 07 550i

Hello all,
Just got myself back into an E60...had an 04 545i 7 or so years ago and miss it. Just picked up an 07 - 550i with fairly low miles at 44,000. Non sport but it has, cold weather including rear heated seats, rear seat pass through, comfort seats, logic 7 entertainment, garage door and auto mirrors adjust, adaptive headlight...pretty much everything but sport and Nav. Also has 18 inch 135 M style wheels. It's titanium grey and beige/ black interior.
Wasn't really looking for one but I was dropping my pick up off for service and this was on the lot...I couldn't resist, the price was crazy good and was a one owner who kept it perfectly including maintenance. I'm going to use this for my daily now and chill with the truck for a while unless I absolutely need it,
Wife's a bit pissed however as this was one of those "beg for forgiveness after the fact" moments lol. Wouldn't be so bad but I just recently dumped a bunch of money into an old fox body Mustang I've had for 18 years. Anyways looking forward to hanging out around here...cheers.

Default my 2007 550i

Hey I have the same car. I just did the Halo bulb upgrade to the bright whites and the smoked led side markers.. www.trinityauto.com nice look then I upgraded my front bumper to the m5 mteck with projector fogs www.umnitza.com and I'll get the m5 rear next month. I asked what made the car a sport model and I was told the suspension for better handling. In order to get this I could go with Koni FSD (self adjusing/damperning struts)according to your cornering/driving condition and the Eibach pro kit so I'm looking into this. But i was also told i did not have the logic 7 system I'm still checking into that one. I wanted to get the dynamic retro navvy. Www.dynavin.com looks nice and they said it wouldn't work with logic 7. Hummmm i think they are trying to get a sell. Oh and i have Pedal Boxx the controls the pedal response 3 levels with a controller. The 550 sport models have this built in already. I'm just trying to get my car as close to the sport model as I can. And I ordered the joystick shifter thats in the 2014 models www.bimmian.com hey let me know what else makes the car a sport model.
