Pulled the trigger! 2011 550i CPO
I just sold my 2013 F30 BMW 335i M Sport last week private party. ........so i was on the hunt for a replacement car and after much deliberation on what to buy I pulled the trigger yesterday! Ended up with a 2011 550i CPO.
Did the deal over the phone and drove a one way rental to Miami to take delivery. Jet Black on black with bamboo anthracite trim. Sport package, convenience package, premium 2 package. 1 owner, FL car with 28k miles Oh.....and did I mention it has a Dinan Stage 2 tune? I really wanted an M Sport package and luxury seats but when the guy told me this car was certified with the Dinan Stage 2 tune already on it.......it was a compromise I was willing to make!! I can change out a body kit or bumper cheaper than the tune soooo.....I bit. Great news is my Rotiform wheels I pulled off my F30 will fit too....so I can keep em. I had them throw in some new all weather mats and black grills to close the deal. I am very happy with the car so far and enjoyed my road trip home, much more comfortable and plush feeling than my F30. Power delivery is completely different of course but there is plenty with this bad boy especially given the size. In fact some D-Bag in a Benz found out the hard way on the way home last night Plans: install the black grills, throw my Rotiform's on, Tint, new springs probably Dinan kit, exhaust, some additional small chrome delete, maybe a new sport rep bumper or at least a lip kit. The list will go on

Thanks! Wheels and Black Grills are going on tonight....and I have an appointment for tint in the morning!
So by tomorrow evening she should be looking a bit different already Congrats to you! I really wanted those two options but again I compromised to have the Dinan Stage 2 tune.......I am seriously looking at an m-tech or similar styled body kit, at least the front bumper!

Thank you and thank you, congrats to you as well.
I am really enjoying it so far. So comfortable and smooth........Makes selling the F30 way less painful than what it could have been. The Stage 2 Dinan tune is definitely fun! Tint is going on now......still haven't got chance to swap out the grills and wheels.

Congrats on your new ride! I didn't know that BMW would CPO a car with a Dinan Stage 2 performance mod. That's a nice upgrade.
I made a similar purchase in June with a CPO 2011 550i xDrive with 28K miles, (Black Sapphire, Black Dakota, Anthracite, Premium II, Sport, SAT, Cold Weather, Convenience and Surround View). So far I have added the OE rear fogs switch and M5/650i sway bars are being installed on Friday. |

Yeah I think they will CPO any Dinan-equipped B M for the most part. I saw a CPO actual "Dinan" package 550i in Dallas F/S when I was looking for mine that had that whole shebang on it. It lasted less than 2 days!
How do you like the S2? Some people are iffy on the Dinan gains from what I've read.

Congrats! I saw you were looking at 550GTs first, but I guess the F10s pulled you in.
As someone who's had trouble with DINAN (and I have Stage 2) before, I never fully know if it's installed right on the car, but nonetheless it's a nice added thing to have on. However, you should definitely considering buying the Stage 1 BMS tune and stacking it with DINAN (its 100% safe, I've validated), that will be one hell of a machine. Maybe instead of M-Sport you could do the M5 rep bumper? That is always a nice option.

I didn't realize that you can stack BMS on top of Dinan tune? What are the advantages? As far as bumper, I actually decided to keep the stock and add a 3D style lip....just figured it was a bit different than most are running. Plus saving money for a GT Haus exhaust The lip is being painted and hopefully installed next week.
