Nice M550!! Definitely catching eye’s going down the road!!! How’s the infotainment system on them? How is it for long road trips? I am interested in the M550 it’s such a beautiful piece of machinery!! Ultimate Driving Machine.

[@indigoscat3922]

Infotainment system is pretty good, it comes with pretty much anything you would need and the graphics are really good quality. As for long road trips same thing is comfortable enough that you will enjoy a long trip on this car for sure

I got an 18 M550i xdrive performance it's a beast sleeper

[@indigoscat3922]

It is, totally agree!!!

[@zkhan9936]

how reliable is it? I'm looking at one with 56k miles

You will definitely wax a cat from a dig but don’t do a roll race you have no chance unless it’s tuned especially under a ‘20 year model

[@indigoscat3922]

I know that, I own a cat as well.

[@styellz1548]

How is the reliability? I’m considering either this or a 2020 M340i but I can’t decide

[@indigoscat3922]

Its been amazing, only issue I had was the AC not getting cold enough about a month ago. Took it to shop and was low on freon. They pressure tested 3 times and no leaks so they recharged and its been good since then. I had 3 series in the past but after owning my m550i i think i will stick with 5 series.

[@gtwjr66]

Don’t keep them after the warranty runs out they become money pits!!

[@indigoscat3922]

@@gtwjr66 I dont agree. Mine have been amazing, I have also spoke to many ppl that have them even with higher miles and is a great car. That when something goes bad could be more expensive to fix than a Toyota yeah thats true. But they are reliable cars for sure.

[@adrianlatifeci2324]

@@gtwjr66 bmw ranked 3 for most reliable this year older bmws we’re bad bmw has came a long way now

[@DadUsed2Skate]

The m340i is supps to be more reliable with the b58 engine. My buddy is a bmw master tech and he has said the 550i is a great car but does come with more issues then other bmws. If you want reliability go b58( 340i or 540i if you want a sleeve vehicle) 550i is a great car and performance is crazy but if you want more reliability go b58. This comes from a bmw master tech here in Florida.

[@V3Brandon]

I'm trying to decide between a hellcat charger and a 2020+ M550i. What would you recommend?

[@indigoscat3922]

Thats a tought one. I do beleive the bmw is a better daily driver overall and more luxurious for sure. However the Charger Hellcat is a whole different animal, not as luxurious but I think you would have more fun for sure. And nothing beat the supercharger whine lol

[@V3Brandon]

@@indigoscat3922 Which would you say handles better? They're both around the same weight.

[@indigoscat3922]

@@V3Brandon The BMW handles the best for sure. Feels more stable on the road, and also you dont have the risk of spinning at 40mph if you step on the gas like you would on the Hellcat.

[@pevvex4452]

That’s simple one. Don’t even compere two cars. BMW M550i could be best daily in industry. Its great build quality car made in Germany that keep the value very well specially because it’s last V8 in 5 series except M5. Hellcat is just US made average quality car where u look more less like a drug dealer with good sound.

[@jimwillingham8052]

Buy a 2020 or later. They have more horsepower and other features.

[@indigoscat3922]

I know they have more hp and the cluster is digital but honestly they go for way more and is literally same car. I already got quote from local bmw shop to do downpipes and tune and that should put me on m5 power for around 3k so is not a bad deal. But i do know the 2020 and up are a bit nicer.

Is this is highway cruiser or is this sporty in any way? I have a redeye chager and Im looking for a sportier ride. Wanting a G80 but I've looked at these before.

[@indigoscat3922]

Its on the sportier side. Even tho is a sedan it handles really well, also when driving on sport plus it feels really good. I had a Charger Scat before my hellcat and I can tell you that these m550 handle better for sure. However it's still comfortable for like daily use.

How may miles on I did you buy it with?
