Thanks for the great review. I ordered my 550xi recently. It's due to be built end of January. I decided to splurge and literally checked every option except the ski bag and ceramic controls. After seeing your pictures and others' I decided on DGMII with Black interior.
I'm coming from an E92 LCI M3 Coupe. Like you, my needs have changed and I can no longer justify the coupe. I needed something bigger but didn't want to sacrifice the performance I am used to.
I'm also a gadget guy, and missed a lot of the creature comforts I was used to in the way of cameras, sensors, etc. I'm looking forward to all of the tech in the 550. If only I could put myself in a medically-induced coma until mid-February when it's supposed to turn up!
