535i vs 550i
If you plan to keep the car awhile, a point to consider is long term reliability. BMW eights, while glorious engines, tend to require an accelerated level of care as they mature.
The long term reliability of the turbo in the case of a 535i would be a concern to me but the stout engineering of BMWs 3.5 liter engines is legendary. IMO no other mfr can build a six like BMW.
