The NEW M550i has been brought to a higher level by BMW for 2021. Under the hood is a 4.4L twin-turbo V8 that is producing 523HP & mated to a ZF 8-speed automatic. Power is transferred to the ground through BMW's Xdrive AWD system. On the outside you will find a revised front fascia, wheels, rear bumper and exhaust. On the inside you will find some nice updates, high end materials and lots of great technology. Is the 2021 BMW M550i a real M5 you want to buy?

TO WHOM EVER READING, THANK GOD YOU ARE ALIVE TO READ THIS AND MAY GOD BLESS YOU WITH GREAT HEALTH AND WEALTH
Probably one of the best premium sedans on sale right now
You are so very right
No Genesis this time?😆
@@edwardvalivonis23 generic pee wee 4/6 cylinder sedan
What about compared to the ct5 blacking? Same price range
@@tharealwilliewipeout Blackwing is very cool, you have to buy it. Def no leasing that beast. It’s rear wheel drive hence why it’s prob not faster then the M550 0-60. Being able to get a manual is great.
The M550i is the ultimate sleeper! I previously owned the 2018 model and people would be so surprised when I would start it while in the parking lot. The cold start sounded brutal for a luxury sedan I guess. I own a X5M competition now but I still think about the M550 from time to time. Great review as always!
I really like the car. It is much cheaper than the M5, but also has a lot of power (enough power in my eyes 😉) and has a more comfortable suspension.
Ready for the “ON THROTTLE”
Always everytime.. that's why I watch his videos
*This the best looking BMW right now.* 👍
I am so glad that you like this one.
beauty is always in the eye of the beholder.
@Jamal Lane x7 looks like a joke
@Jamal Lane x7 is ugly. The big grilles are hideous why do people like them
M340i looks better
Hey Joe, your various selections of food and drinks in the car pockets always make me chuckle!
The way this guy gives details on the features are top notch!!! He's excellent!!
You had more "on throttle" fun with this review...your second on the 2021 M550i. Of course, with the help of your first review, I bought one! It has the Nappa Leather with front ventilated seats...BEST car I've ever owned!!!
The way my bank account set up , BMW out of my range LOL 😂 especially when they start having problems
that's why you lease these cars. you DO NOT buy them
@@SpaceyZee LOL 😂
You lease it for 36 months and return and pick another. It still going to have all the warranty.
@@kromahj you got a point LOL 😂 I nevered leased any of my vehicles, Iam assuming it not bad tho rich people do it all the time lol 😂
@FiatDuster 😩😩😩
That color is gorgeous haven’t seen it on any car as of late. Those rims are beautiful too
I am so glad that you like this one Matt!
I have a 2023 version. The color is extra charge.
About MY only zonk, is the fact of no ventilated seats. I now need a lottery win..... ON THROTTLE, all the time! Lori got some great angles on this. Thanks for all you do, lori!
Front ventilated seats is an option. 💵
Yeah, having 'fart extracting' seats is a true luxury for all those beer drinking guys out there.
I know how you feel Adam!
Should not be at this price point!
I have ventilated seats. As said it’s just optional.
Great review and awesome car. I'm anxiously waiting on my build to go into production. Might be 2-3 months until I'm driving this beauty!
I'm glad you reviewed this car. I'm in love with the M550i. I want one so bad.
I am so glad that I could bring it to you!
@@RaitisRides joe i love your videos by the way, one day can you please do a review on the 2021 cadillac xt5 please im thinking of buying one soon. thanks 🙏
Sweet ride and awesome review as always. Thank you and Lori as well
Thanks Jack! We are so glad that we can bring it to you!
Love the car!!! Thanks for bringing it Joe!
I always love the 5 series. The perfect size and just the right sportiness.
I am so glad that you like this one.
The new 5 series is basically the same size as the older e32 7 series. The new 3 series is same size as the old e39 5 series.
@@gregs8685 that’s one of the reasons I’m looking at buying the new G80 M3. It’s larger than it’s predecessors, and has power to match it’s curb weight under 4000lbs. Excited to say the least.
13:34 ON THROTTLE!!!!!!! Yeahhhhhh it sounds awesome
Heck yeah Anthony!
The sound of that TURBO though I mean wow 😳
You better believe it Kenny!
You two always nail it with your reviews.
Thanks for saying that! It really means the world!
I´m not the biggest fan of BMW, but boy oh boy, this M5 looks so good.
I am glad that you like this one.
This is not an M5
“You can put Texas Instruments calculator or a Speak-n-Say back here...”. Awesome.
Oh yeah!
Joe you know I love my BMW’s and I love this one just as much and the color is perfect.
What a great car, makes the M5 seem like overkill, and more practical. Great review, thanks Joe. Off to my BMW dealer, tomorrow!
Thanks for letting me share it with you! I really appreciate your awesome support!
the color combo on this one is amazing
Nice ride Joe! Enjoy the power
ON THROTTLE brother!
The dynamic duo, Joe and lori !
Love this car luxurious and sportly at the same time 😎
enjoying this review. thank you joe!
I'm a simple man, I see "new Raiti video" I watch!! im not even looking for a new ride, just bought one
Thanks Eric for that awesome dedication!
Thank You Lori for bringing us that Beautiful BMW 550 I...!!!
She is awesome!
I had an E39 540i M-Sport w/ a 6spd. I think it may be time to get back in a 5 series! This thing is sharp!
Amazing review.... love the M550i... Joe, please review the latest BMW 840i Coupe... I just love that car...
I love Lexus cars all of them,but that beautiful red on the BMW Is amazing,thanks for given us the opportunity to see ,such magnificents cars. Stay safe God bless.
Thanks Edgar!
Man that BMW is a sweet car great video Joe!
I am so glad that you like this one.
Sweet ride! Always been a fan of the bimmer, having owned two.
I am so glad that i can share it with you!
I like the half zonk on the sunroof 😂 you’re awesome
As a new subscriber, I really like ur reviews, keep up the great work! If ever possible, you should do motorcycle reviews that’ll be awesome!
Hey Edwin! Thanks for joining the Raiti's Rides family! I will try to get that together for you!
These offer a tremendous value, really quite impressive. This particular color is stunning too! Great review!!
You hit the nails right on the head!
Only if you like overpaying for poor reliability and a lot of plastic components. Enjoy that massive depreciation.
@@zarbon700 I bet you drive a boring Toyota or Honda. lmao
@@zarbon700 reliability is sort of irrelevant when buying new. If this car doesn’t have nice enough materials for you then basically every other car won’t either. Depreciation effects the majority of cars so that’s a moot point imo.
@@kristians2704 I rather have a boring Toyota or Honda than a unreliable, overpriced BMW. Have fun with the constant trips to the dealership and mechanic for repairs.
Haha you're in Pinellas Park... lucky there were no cops around ;) Great video!
Love the styling on this car, they completely nailed it.
I totally agree with you!
Awesome car. Love the colour It sounds great. Thanks Joe & Lori. 🚗 💥 💨
Ive been waiting for this. Very interested 🥂 thinking about getting it.
I’m so glad that I could share it with you!
Nice review! Getting this soon in tanzanite blue!
Thanks! That will be beautiful!
Love your videos, and I'm getting a 2021 M5C after watched your video.
Thanks for tuning in! I am so glad that I can share my car passion with you!
@@RaitisRides Very nice! Keep doing this!
I’m late on this one but, that’s a beautiful car and looks and sounds like a blast to drive but, can be a super comfortable car also. Always loved the 3 and 5 series BMWs
Oh man, maybe the wheels and calipers start to reveal the secret, but this is a sweet, sweet sleeper. Great feature of a dream daily.
Great way to put it!
Love the Skittles Red exterior paint!
Nice man!
What a stunning color, that blackberry red...great looking sedan.
I totally agree with you!
Love this channel!
Awesome video as usual! The M550i is an amazing sedan. The ventilated seats aren’t on this car but it is only a 500 dollar option to have them which idk why this car didn’t have it.
Yeah don't have it..a deal breaker if u buy over the used car..ventilated seats are a most in my book especially I live in the South..no tri zone climate control neither..deal breaker..u better off getting a 2year old M5 for this price..even less lol
@@johnblack4915 u can get a 2020 bmw m550i with 40k miles still with warranty for high 40's, u cant get a warranty m5 less than 70k lmfao
Just ordered my 2022:same color, mocha seats with ventilated, massaging seats and shadow line.
Great review
Great review as always, Joe and excellent video work. Big ups Lori (sp?). I wonder how it will stack up to the Cadillac CT5 V in the manual. Oh and that driver in the blue truck, though, they just took off🙂.
I know right! Very good points Sean!
love your reviews
Thanks for taking the time to say that!
Great job Joe
6:50 woah it sounds cool
WOW!!!!! This is Definitely My Favorite Sedan By BMW & This Car Is Clean Inside & Out.
I totally agree with you!
25 year old styling. Try the Jaguar XFRS.
Afternoon Joe!
Nice review
🤣😂 I just left a comment on your earlier review of this car...in this review you found out about the electronically adjustable side bolstering...in the other video you clearly hadn't. Anyway, I bought one of these cars, thanks to reviews like yours, and love the seats...and side bolstering! Thanks! On throttle!
Thanks for watching all of my reviews!
@@RaitisRides of course! By the way...we now have the M550i and a "22 Kia Stinger GT2 in Ascot Green, I love our garage! Having driven a lot of cars (not as many as you) I can say that Stinger FEELS like a German car! Designed by an Audi guy and engendered by a former big wig at the BMW M Division, it makes sense. It's solidly built, fast, and all the rest that a German car brings...and looks fantastic! Anyway, thanks...and on throttle!
Damn, 20-way adjustable passenger seat. Mind blowing haha.
I know right!
How are you Joe? BMW M5! LET'S GO!!!
Hey Tom! let's do it!
@@RaitisRides ;D
Awesome Review...for an Awesome Car👍🏽😎
Nicely spec'd..interior combi is great V8's 💥💥💥💥💥💥💥
Heck yeah!
I really like that M550i Joe, The color is a really neat color 👍👍👍
I am so glad that I could share it with you!
I would never afford this car but it is sexy inside and out. Really clean lines and the paint and rims are SICK! Will look online and see if anyone has an aftermarket exhaust on one of these.
Thanks for letting me share it with you.
I like the videos better when your camera is positioned over your head while your driving. So we can see how smooth the steering wheel is
Joe Raiti if I would of known you was in New Jersey I would of told you to stop by my house for some expresso or some Twinkies like always Thank You for posting.
Nice one Joe.......it should be for $93k. I love sleepers ! 🙂 Great color combo with interior. Thanks Joe and Lori !
Thanks for your support and letting us share this one with you!
for Europe Premium Car standards is the Interior Design a little bit dated but overall a powerfull and good Premium Midsize Sedan, thanks for the review bro.
I love it my boy Joe keep up the work and I love the video lot real true 💯👍funny 💯😄😆🤣and I love this car lot 💯
You got it Dominic!
Gorgeous color !
One of my favs!
This car is a beast I had a 2017 550i x drive and I would deff call it a sleeper most people have no clue a 5 series comes with a v8 twin turbo . For the people complaining about the reliability the obviously never owned one . It was a 3 year lease I had absolutely no issues with it
Thanks for sharing your ownership experience!
Now that's a state of the art automobile - except for the lack of ventilated seats. It's cold in Germany but it's hotter than hell in our southern states. 🔥
I can just imagine!
The shutters close to preserve the heat joe
When you review sedans, and are showing cargo room, please fold the back seats down too, because it's an important element of a purchase for some of us. Loved this review and this car, wow!
What's not to love. This car is a beauty inside and out!
I am so glad that you like this one.
Wow incredible m5 ! Love the wheels
I am glad that you are digging this one.
This Bimmer is a thing of beauty!!! I love it!!! Thanks to you Joe and Lori for keeping our days going that much better in this crazy crazy world!!! #RaitisRides #OnThrottle #ToTheDoorPanel #TwinkiesForDays #OnThrottleAgain #LoriGotAngles #CameraQueen #Zonkmeister #OnThrottleAllOverThePlace #IfYoureReadyImReady #BMW #M550i
I am so glad that we can bring it to you!
I did 0-60 3.67 on my page in this car! Ive loved it ever since i got it!
Thank's Raidy
You are so very welcome!
@@RaitisRides Keep up the good work! I'm drooling over the new 5-series!
Wow I’m in love with this m5550i Have you done a video on the real m5 2021
Yes Miguel!
@@RaitisRides I’m watching it too it’s the white one I’m in love 😍
Great video Joe! To me at least, this is the best 5 Series. The M5 is just too expensive and too harsh (for me). This is the sweet spot!
I agree with you John! Thanks for letting me share it with you!
Yes the ride quality of the M5 is way too harsh. And really this M550i has all the performance you will ever need.
@@thenovicegamer007 Agreed! Maybe I'm just getting old, but the E63 and M5 are just too rough.
@@johnholst Maybe not the E63, but the M5 is definitely too stiff!
Nice and clean. Great alternative to an m5. It could be the one 4 me
M550i is a mixture of Performance, Luxury & Comfort. Most complete car ever available for the right price.
You nailed it!
Great car. The front looks great. The grill looks similar to the "Tiger nose"
You think so?
@@RaitisRides A little bit. How the "kidneys" are wider and it comes down in the middle from the hood. It looks great, tho. Very strong front end.
That is one handsome car, imma be honest. Would totally buy one.
I know how you feel!
Sweet car! BMW model names make my head spin though😂so many numbers and letters
Nice piece Joe! Still prefer CT5 V Blackwing 6 speed all day! Waiting for your 5 B Wing on Throttle.
I like the way that you think!
Beautiful car but too deep for my pockets. If I spend that much it better have ventilated seats. Every time I see M on a BMW I’m confused as to is it an M or not an M? Thanks for the review Joe. You and Lori are the best!! 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I know how you feel Larry!
I have a 2018 m550 I love it
The seats can be optioned to be heated and cooled but that pushes the more to 95 k but damn that cognac colored leather is to die for
That is exactly my point.
Talk about a sweet spot. Option it for under 80k and it's a great choice. Only zonks are the options that should be standard, but heated seats, steering wheel and the driver nannies.
Very good point!
Bro that car look nice
I finally got to see one of these in person and at first sight I thought it was a 7 series because how big it is . Very nice car but I wish bmw would bring the proportions back down to midsize .
I know how you feel!
Raiti's reviews solidified two car purchases for me. If my wife sees this 550, the Lexus might be gone!
One of the finest performance sedans ever produced.
You are so right!
Interesting how they went with a non-square setup for the tire size on an AWD vehicle. For every other car, people say it's a no no.
I totally agree with you!
