I spent an afternoon in the new 550i (not at a driving event, but on my own). Very nice car but didn't meet my needs. I realllly wanted it to though. I'm super happy with the X5 5.0i though and don't regret for a second the choice or anything I might have given up in the switch.

My SA said that the X5/X6 5.0 is becoming very popular because it now has a much better performance level than than 4.8. He said a lot of his dealership clients are moving from their current 545/550 series to the X5/X6 for more functionality.
