I did test drive the 550i and it felt very strong but didn't feel it was worth the extra dollars as I wanted more gadgets and felt the performance of the 535i would suffice for this type of vehicle. Also I liked the sound of the six better than the V8 and really liked the idea of the better MPG with still good performance.

That Nappa Leather is like butter. I was torn between getting the Oyster Nappa, or Black Dakota with the Ventilated seats. Ultimately the light leather would be so hard to keep clean that my OCD-ness would not allow me to have a light colored interior. But it looks awesome with that color wood and Space Grey.
Thank you, I am enjoying the interior a ton.

Have not driven one with out the Dynamic handling but I feel this car at this price range needs this sort of technology and choices it offers when driving.
