Really? No similarities? Come on.

Re-sale? If anything I would imagine the 4.8 has a greater depreciation rate than the 4.4.

Moving from a good e53 4.4 to an unknown e53 4.8 is not a financially sound decision. That doesn't mean it shouldn't or can't be done, it just means don't try and justify it being a wise financial move. You either just decide the extra $10k is worth the personal benefit of the 4.8 or it isn't.
