If you're on the fence then you probably want the 550 more. The questions you're probably thinking but went unsaid:
1. Is it worth the extra money? if you love that power
2. Can I afford it with all the right options? because it will be over $80k
The other factors are really null like:
1. Nose heavy - this is not a big deal if you have the M Sport suspension. Yes it still won't feel as light as a 528 but the only time where that difference matter is on the track, not the street. Even then, the 550 will power its way past the 528 and 535 easily.
2. Bad Gas mileage - part of the game bro.
3. N63 recalls - not for the newer models, don't buy a used 2011 or 2012
4. Not being able to drive a V6 again - oh please, the next gen TT V6(eg. M4/M3) you may find in future 5 series won't make you miss the V8.
From my experience, the Tesla Model S electric motor makes me want to ditch any ICE vehicle. That thing can be docile like a 535 and goes mad with massive instant torque unlike anything I've ever experienced.
If I buy a house in 5 years, I will probably buy a Tesla Model X over a 5 series instantly.
