Ahh, no that is simply an explanation for accepting the reduction in performance. So new 4.8 owners can be sure to tell pre 07 4.8 owners..." I'm not slow, I'm meant to compete with a 4.4 from a year ago" With all the competition in the SAV/SUV market, I would have expect BMW to really try to unload on their 50-60K ride.
