2011 - 2013 550i x-drive: changes worth it?

Hello all,

I believe I've narrowed it down to go with a 550i. I know there was a navi upgrade in 2013. Was that a pretty significant improvement over 12? Are there other differences I should be aware of? Debating as I can get a 11-12 for $5k-$8k less so want to see if it's worth saving.

Thanks!

aside from the years and possibly mileage, id say not much difference. just make sure you get that recall done. If you can swing for more money i would go with the new N63TU engine.

I wouldn't be able to do a 2014 unfortunately. I'm pushing it with a 2013. Recall would be done immediately.

I suggest PMing some of the recently new 550 owners that got on this board to get their feedback and experience in buying their 550. I think there were a couple that just got an 2011 550 on here. Good luck!
