It's a great idea.... although it sure sounds like BMW is attempting to take the credit for inventing the concept of "forced induction."

Yes, BMW, we know what turbochargers are.
The 740 has been sold in Europe for some time now, but they never had to use the term "virtual displacement" over there.

I think they're trying to dumb it down for ignorant US buyers who only look at how big an engine is before they buy a car-- but are any of those people actually buying a 7 series??
