While the BMW F90 M5 started to be delivered to customers worldwide, the next best thing in BMW’s lineup – the BMW M550i xDrive – is getting a performance bump, thanks to KW Suspension.

997 Miles in a 2018 Mercedes-AMG S65 Coupe
Resting her head against the soft, red Nappa door panel, she stared out across the empty, black field. Her smile lit up in the passenger-side mirror by purple light coming from the footwells of our 2018 Mercedes-AMG S65 coupe. She yelled “There!” and pointed to the pale yellow glow of a firefly. Another bug blinked, then another, then dozens more. She laughed and squirmed like she’d seen a magic trick.
