Let us know if you decided to buy, and if you don't mind, what price you paid. I'm in the market for something very similar on the east coast, and I'd like some pricing info to level set my expectations.

Right now it's between an S4 and a 550i Xdrive for me. Both run about $35-40k in the trim I'm looking for. I like the 550i more, but all the posts about early MY engine/injector/vibration issues have me really worried. Most anything I buy would not have a warranty at that point. I would buy something newer, but I'm having devil of a time finding a single 2012+ with Adaptive Roll Stabilization (code 229), and that's a must have for me.

Good luck, whatever you decide to do.

I had a e92 335 with similar mods and moved to a 535i Xdrive. I think you will enjoy the 550. From the posts ive read the 550 is an animal. However on the contrary if you are looking for the same aftermarket "market" as the e92 you may be a tad disappointed. All around I can say I dont regret the move but I should have got the 550.
