Decided to trade in for a stage 4 550i

Tourbillon · 04-20-2013, 06:10 PM

Figured it was time for something faster and better. Not to mention this thing is a real head turner. Anyone else jumping on board?

I don't know. The Stage 4 550i is a nice car, but it's got nothing on the new Civic Si. The VTEC adds a 1000hp over any stage 4 mods on your 550i.

And I'm adding a Mugen exhaust and LED chassis lights for a total output of 1500hp.

Plus the civic si draws super hot babes. I mean you won't return to your car to find this in a stage 4 550i.

I'd like some context behind this.. Seems like a rivalry going on

I'm still holding out for the Stage 5 before I trade in.

Am I understanding thos correctly: The question is if you should trade in your F10 M5 for a Dinan Stage 4 F10 550i? If that's the case, can you explain the reasoning?

I heard that Stage 5 includes these:

The Stage 5 will have the whistle tips, but they only be included in the competition package according to Autobild Magazine. They say that the comp package will be priced at $16,000.

Whoooop Whooooop!!!

But hang on, I heard the stage 4 was going to made obsolete by a new competition package on the LCI

I believe those two hotties just added some hp to all of our cars.

BC87 · 04-21-2013, 10:31 AM

Why are those girls on that civic si? Don't touch my race car. Back up!

Ha ha, this so similar with the 335i tuned vs. M3 for about 2-3 years ago.....

Don't worry, in 2-3 years time from now an M5 will still be an M car, while the 550 will be just a regular 5 series BMW.

What do you mean by 2-3 years from now? That's true today!
