 550i VS 545i



Does anyone have figures for 0-10, 0-20 ... upto 0-100 acceleration time frames of 545i and a 550i. From BMW website I understand that the 550i has 35 more HP and 30lbft more Torque than 545i? (Is that correct). And if that is true, THE REAL QUESTION HERE IS:

IS THE 550i FASTER THAN 545i ? AND BY HOW MUCH ?

Wouldn't you think, all other things equal, that the 550i should be a tad faster? Is it a big deal?

No, doesn't make much of a difference, but still just curious, since I have the 4.8L engine. Just want to know wheather I have an advantage or not.

yes you do the torque is higher and comes on quicker.

As I recall, the 0 - 60 MPH times quoted by BMW are 0.3 sec. faster for the 550i.

So basically it will really come down to the driver.
