That's an N54 - and yes, it seems to be a decent deal. Going price is around $2,500.

Whats the differences just looking at it? I just looked up the year and model and it said it was a N55.

They are pretty different, visually. Single vs. twin as well.

I see! Im just not very familiar with the motors as I haven't really had my hands in them besides downpipes and a FMIC.

No worries! I'm happy to share my knowledge on the N5x platform. Most of you guys have the older stuff and I don't know anything about it, lol. I bought an E30 once and couldn't get it to run. An M20 and an M50 are the same in my eyes.

I clicked on the website.  They want $25 to register and "search" inventory.  Wonder how legit it is?

Looks like a scam. If you go on their website they want you to give them your cc and charge $25 just to be able to search.

In my eyes the n54 and n55 are the same besides the number of turbos.
