M550i or 540I MSport

Hi All,

So ive been given the OK to trade my daily in for something and after test driving a bunch of cars (S4, S5, 340i, C43AMG, SQ5) i decided to drive a 540i and liked it more than any of those, now I'm stuck with do I go with a M550i or 540I.

Background - My other car is a 1007whp 2015 Camaro, will be tearing it down and hoping that a fast bimmer would keep me from rushing it back on my new build.

Now here's my questions:

- Which has better tuning support? The car will go full bolt-on right away, but I do like the sound of the V8 but not opposed to the 6 if it has better support, I will likely hit up the strip and do some lapping with the car.

- Turbo upgrades, is it worth it on the V8? I looked at VTT and Pure Turbo and i do like the sound of 700-800WHP

- Fuel System Limits, any benefit to either N63 or B58?

- Hows resale? I plan on upgrading to an M5 at some point in the future... she just said M5 is a No unless I come up with the difference in cash but as stated

Thanks
