I leased a 550i to give it a try and see why there's so much excitement about cars with a lot of power/torque. I pushed it to its potential a few times when I had the opportunity, and, yes, it can accelerate like a rocket. Is it something that I can do regularly? Not on public roads. Also, once experienced a few times, there's no desire to keep doing it again and again - it's a "been there, done that, got it out of my system" kind of thing, and a 540i has more than enough power/torque for any remotely reasonable "spirited" driving on public roads.
