It is what it is great car lousy company

If you are a bmw machanic it will be a great car if you pay to have the maintanence done it will cost you about 4000 year only because bmw charges so much about 225 hr to replace an ac pump they charged 4790.00 sorry Beamer this is robbery a friend did it for 1400. You can expect a lot of this from BMW. Now ask me if it’s fun! Fast! Head twister! It’s a driving machine do your home work and stay away from the n63 f10 550,s I wish I would have known.

Do not waste time looking at this car.

I went to test drive this car and it has a blown transmission. Dealership was sketchy and unfriendly salesmen. Don't waste your time like I did.

A true performance drivers car

I purchased new in 2013 with M-Sport and Executive pack options, and have never regretted it. Still look forward to the daily commute - love the instant acceleration, absolute reliability and total comfort. First car I've ever owned beyond the warranty !! 73k miles and still feels new.

Almost and M5

Awesome car with Dinan Upgrades. It?s basically an all wheel drive M5 for 1/3 the cost. Purchased at BUL Automotive & Service in Albany. A great owner operated dealership.

Worst car ever

worst vehicle I've ever owned. The car broke down literally every 3k miles, and to pay to fix it was more expensive than the car was worth. only saving grace about the car is it was fast. very fast, but the inside resembled that of a higher end Toyota. would not recommend this car to anyone

Most Fun and Elegant Car I've Owned

"The Ultimate Driving Machine" is a perfect description. From its Smooth Acceleration to the impeccable handling, to the beautiful lines of the car... after owning Mercs and Audi??! I'll NEVER leave BMW!!!

Great car with some serious umph!

I bought a CPO 550 and absolutely love it. The car handles incredibly well around the roundabouts of Carmel, Indiana! I actually look forward to going around them to and from work! The luxury seating package is an absolute must and I highly recommend the driver assistance plus package. The night vision package is pretty much unnecessary and not practical...it's hard to look at a monitor and pay attention to the road. Also, the top and side view cameras make parking a breeze. I love this car and look forward to driving it every day.
