You got it. I worked with salesman Joe Svboda. Guy was awesome. Love this dealership, do not want to go anywhere else.

Long story short, I fell in love with the color and decided to buy it on the spot. I am soooo happy I did not need to wait 4-5 extra months.

I kept waiting and waiting for an allocation to order my Aventurine Red M550i and finally the stars aligned just so and I ended up with my dealer ordered incoming Skyscraper Grey. Or Gray. Like you two, I couldn't find any decent - consistent - pictures online, but that looks really good.

I'll actually see how it looks in about an hour, when I go pick it up.

Mine is almost the same as dj's, except that it is equipped with the venti seats, which honestly don't do much for me. Otherwise I think they're twins.

Congrats to both of you guys/gals/whatever.

I paid MSRP which was $87,000

2023 M550i - Skyscraper Gray/Black Nappa Leather

-Driving Assist Pro
-Parking Assist
-Shadowline
-Heated front/rear seats
-Heated steering wheel
-HUD
-50 years emblem

This is my first BMW. I have wanted this car since I was like 15 years old.

Let me know if you guys have any suggestions on how to care for it properly. Cheers!

Congrats on the beautiful car. I think I actually met you in the dealership parking lot when you bought this (I told you to have them clean the adhesive off the wheels for you ).

I was debating b/w the M5 and M550 and you had just bought their last M550. Looked awesome in person.
I was going to buy the M5 they had but they wanted $3k over MSRP so ended up walking, don't believe in price gouging

congrats on the gorgeous M550

No way!!! Yes I remember you, thank you for the tip on cleaning the rims.

I will say M5 is amazing but this car is so beautiful as a daily driver. I've already put 1400 miles on it and literally zero complaints.

No way you should pay over retail for that M5! It was an awesome car but thats kinda ridiculous....I bet within 6 months to 1 year they will be offering promotions again but I could be wrong.

Enjoy!

Were you able to get Park Assist Pro and the digital Key with your order? probably going to place my order next week and I got a November build week.

Been at the port since December 15; not white as shown, but rather "special order color" (i.e., malachite green metallic).

Our cars must have been on the same train. There was a boat that left on the 15th and one on the 16th. I think the next shipment to Baltimore is on 12/30. Fingers crossed I make that one.

Looks a lot like my 2021 M550 in Bluestone. By miles the best car I’ve ever owned. Dreading my lease end!
