same price, the 335i coupe is a little more if anything. Same miles 62k. which is faster? can't find solid numbers on either. Which is more reliable? fun to drive? rare? Which looks/feels better? subjective. thanks

The 550 is the V8 model, correct?

Buy: Neither.

You want:

2009+ 335i

-or-

2013+ 550i​

Why? You got some readin' to do....

If your going the V8 route, do NOT get the N63, make sure it's a N63TU. N63's are BMW's problem child.

I don't think the N63 was available in 2007, at least not in the US.

The bad bad version o'iDrive was, however.

Hah! I'd take an early version of iDrive over the N63 issues any day! Was originally shopping for an E70 Xdrive50i... all that changed after researching the N63. Ended up picking up a N55 powered E70 instead.

It wasn't, I was just referring to the comment regarding get a 2013+ 550I.

A 3 series with the sport package will always be the sharper handling of the two. Its smaller and lighter. Drive them both and get what fits your needs.
