2015 M4 sold, M550i ordered !!!!!
Hi All:
Obviously been doing most of my hanging out over on the M 3/4 forum for the past three years. I'll be hanging my hat over here from now on. Loved my M4 the last three years, but wanted four doors, more room and still have a ton of performance. M5 too rich for my blood. A demo drive through some curves, etc. in the M550i and I was hooked. My dealer got an allocation for me last Monday and I ordered the car on Tuesday. I attached a pic of an identical color, both int/ext and wheels. Bluestone metallic/Dakota cognac. Only thing missing in the pic are the M Performance black rocker decals. Besides the wheels I added the winter package and driver assist. Moderately equipped except for performance............it's loaded with that! Now the waiting begins. Hopefully it will be in my garage by mid July. |

My order sent in last Weds, the 9th. Damn I'd love to have mine that quick, but not holding my breath. Haven't talked to a Genius yet. I will call him tomorrow and see if he can give me more info that the BMWUSA does.
Nice to hear Forza. I'm sure I will share your feelings. |

I miss my M3 and was thinking of getting rid of the 540 for a M3 again or a M4. Don't really need the 4 doors. But I guess M550 is an option too...

Well, thought I'd give a quick update on my order status. Built the car with my allocation at the dealer on 5/9. Status went to 112 a few days later. Production week 24, 6/10. Nothing since. The Genius said that those production timelines rarely change. So here I sit.......... waiting. Hopefully, if no delays, I'm thinking late July or early August it will be in my garage getting waxed and then driven and driven and driven. Didn't help that I was able to sell my M4 in five days and now sharing the GF's X3 for two months, but grateful that I sold the M so quickly! Maybe I'll check with my doctor and see if he can put me to sleep for two months!

Is there a real difference in comfort level between M3 and 540i
