The 550 is a great car. The M3 engine pulled harder in the upper half of the rpms, but the 550 has the torque, hands down. I'm surprised how well the 550 handles and it's definitely a cushier ride. I'm just starting to put my mods on the 550. When modified correctly, the 550 could take a stock M3 e46. Both are great cars.
