I told him at least be happy, yours has the twin-turbo N54 which sounds better, responds better and produces an extra 5kw over the N55 in the LCI 7series.. 240kw vs. 235kw. Yours has real dial gauges with needles that's a big plus..
hahaha that was nice of you to lie to your dad to make him feel better, but the N55 responds better than an N54 and definitely sounds a lot better.

But seriously, he didn't miss out on much just some extra chrome and new headlights outside. He still got a fantastic car. I agree that the gauges with real needles are a big plus.
