my dad has a 550i and that thing is fast. i would think twice about ever trying to race one of those. I used to be able to tell the difference of the models from in front by looking to see if the double grill was chrome, but even the new lower engine models have those chrome grills... I need a comptech S/C!

Yeah if you go through like 10 menu settings in the i-drive and change it to hi power mode- otherwise 400hp.

So cruising through town last night with the top down, and a new (04-05) 545i pulls up next to us and takes off, the driver was in his 50's with his wife- we both did a double take and I followed him onto the freeway.
This one.. 2003- 545i - 4.4 L (4398 cc) N62B44 V8, 245 kW (333 hp DIN) ?

If you install CTSC w/ AC, any different?
