Maybe some of the owners can help out.
The cowl v. pop-up change for pro nav happened from models built in 09/08 onward.

The N55 and N54 have some different components as well, apart from the obvious turbo charger setup. Depending on whether you want to tune your car you might want to consider this when you make your decision too.
