I picked the 550, and dont regret it one bit, if speed is what youre looking for, my 550 is stock, and I've beaten every new vette thats tried to race me, makes me wonder why people do the upgrades, 400 hp and 450 lbs is pretty damn fast on normal streets.
Not sure who you're racing but any C6 Vette should walk away from a stock 550i.

For the OP, I went with the 535 M sport as a 550i was another 10 grand over what I bought. I use the car for commuting so the much better mileage of the 535 also is a plus.
