Currently own a F15 X5D enjoying the N57 engine, but I have given up on finding a Msport 5D at this point that's on the east coast.

Moving into gas there are a bit more Msports available between N55 and N63TU. I'm not afraid of maintenance and having been slowly acquiring all the necessarily tools / 2-post lift / ISTA+ to work with, but looking at the 15/16 models.

I'm thinking a 550i (or xi) while base price is more expensive, will be a more fun beater car to work on / drive than the 535i (or xi). Open to any suggestions or thoughts, been torn reading through both.
