Is it an M-Sport?

I have an m-sport 328i. Basically has m badging on the interior, uprated shocks, and the aro-package.

Sexy. Incredible wheels. Love the color combo.

And my vote for the best karma, EVER, on SigForum.

Awesome car. Congrats.

Enjoy it every chance you can. Smiles and miles.

Thanks Gentlemen!

Nice car! I'm confused, though. What's the M designation? It's not an M5 and it's not a 550i...is it sort of an in-between?

The M550i sits between the base models and the balls-out M5 in the 5-Series line. The equivalent vehicle in the 3-Series lineup is the M340i.

I actually test drove both the M550i and the M5 and, for my kind of city and commute driving, I preferred the M550i.

The ride is more comfortable and it doesn't scream "cite me officer" quite as loudly as the full-on M-car. Much more practical as a daily driver IMO.

Yes it is.

It is also the only 5-Series vehicle with a V8 other than the M5.

You can view the entire 5-Series lineup HERE.

Nice car! Congrats!

I half expected to see a quarter resting against one of the tires.

Agreed! Sweet Karma! I'm in. I love my 535XI. Enjoy it.
