That’s how I found my 07 43k mile 6spd 550i. I hired a guy to find me a 05+ ctsv and he ended up finding me the bmw.

it’s just people being uneducated.. actually, willfully ignorant. older aunts. grandma. uncle rico. those types.

I love my 550i. Definitely not a M5 but it’s decent enough for me. I have the 6spd and I can only do a best of 14.8 MPG. It’s horrible.

I have a 07 550i 6spd. Never driven the e39 but I love my car. Would take a ctsv in a heartbeat tho.. the e39 better be magical to make me want it more than my 550 or any v.
