I don't think many doubt that a modern bmw turbo 4 has plenty of power, and is perfectly adequate. There are other attributes of the I6 that make it a joy to drive though. It's also nice to know that you have excess power on tap, even if you never actually exploit it. These are all just luxuries of course, but choosing a luxury car isn't based only on practicality and need. If it was, there wouldn't be any point choosing a luxury brand, when one can have any number of perfectly adequate (and then some) vehicles for half the cost or less. When you're paying that much more, you expect that much more. Some of us expect more engine, some others place a priority on technology, comfort, and whatever else.
