G550

Hey all,

Im getting really tired of my G550 and looking to trade it in for a BBJ.

Okay honestly, how much does a G550 cost? I know the price depends on options, etc., but what is the "base" cost? Im see ~$59m and ~$40m on different sites.

I beleive a BBJ starts at $42M.

Why would someone choose a G550 over a BBJ? It seems that the BBJ is much more popular, seeing that there are only 100 G550s registered in the US, with 25 belonging to Gulfstream, according to wikipedia.

I know the G500 is ~$36M, so thats a totally different league...like EXP vs. GOLD.

The BBJ has such a presence...and its huge. The G550 is nice...but it ain't that big.
