How fast is a 2007 BMW 550i 6Spd?I was playing with one out at the old airbase

Hmmm.... well I guess that answers that. I guess I was thinking mid-14's or something,
Nice car but if I was spending $70,000 I would get a Z06.

Yeah, but if you need a nice comfortable car that has lots of options, seats four comfortably, and has some ***** then why not the 550i?

Corvette is a sports car. The BMW is a comfortable mile muncher and when doing high mileage I would rather sit in comfort. Something the vette just can't do the same.

I'd say it could be (or even was) an interesting race. Compares to E500 performance-wise

I'd rather drive a Volvo S60R than the 550! It would blow
it's doors off, out handle it, AND be just as comfortable if not more for 30k less.
