I purchased my 2018 BMW M550i a little over year ago. I absolutely LOVE this car! The torque and acceleration are phenomenal! Side Note: I spoke with a representative at Dinan (auto tuning) who confirmed that BMW underrates the hp on this car. The actual hp is 539 (Dyno confirmed). I presume this is done in part because BMW would have a much harder time justifying the price increase to jump to the M5’s 602hp when the M550i is only 63 hp less. You can have this car tuned to match the M5’s 602hp for under $5k. 🚙💨💨💨

Awesome review! Great car, mother just bought a new M5 (her 5th inn15 years, and all have been dead reliable) and it's great. But....a big but...it's fast as, but it has lost the rawness and precision of previous 5ers and a manual (yes I know autos are quick, and some dual clutches are even faster, but having the option to shift yourself should still be an option). I still love these cars but the sound from a naturally aspirated engine like the E60 M5 can't be beat. These are just too quiet. We got a 550i here in Oz last year, and it's amazing, but miss the exhaust notes of previous V8 BMWs. And for nearly 200k (we pay way more than you lucky guys in the States) And the lack of Android Auto is sad, in no way a deal breaker, but with the techie Germans should be included. And the smart key is buggy and slow. Again amazing cars, the best is their respective classes, but just has lost some of the connection between driver and car. Not an AMG fan as Mercs are too soft and unreliable, but at least their V8s sounds like they should. And I do love the mostly analogue instruments of this particular car, some option packs have the all digital displays for the speedometer and tachometer. Don't like them, prefer analogue in a performance car. Oh and you can get a panoramic roof in some markets, should be standard in an over 100k car IMHO. But the 540i is the most value for car. The TT inline 6 is smooth as butter. Granted a big drop in bhp, but still an awesome engine. And the grills open an close depending on the needs on the engine and efficiency, not just to keep bug or things out haha

@@JoeBowaterFS any car will depreciate… as soon as you drive the car off the lot the value goes down so it doesn’t matter. The best way to do it, you save up for the car you really want and call it a day. Making payment every month isn’t fun, you can use that money elsewhere and Ownership is wealth. For the maintenance, if you can’t afford the maintenance on a car you like then you should look for another one.
