My guess is that BMW is understating the numbers slightly.

BMW is notorious for understating their numbers. They always report low numbers probably because their motors will generate ATLEAST that much power. Kind of like, "Well on the engine's worst day and running conditions, it will put out at least this much power" which is nice because you know that you're buying a powerful car under all circumstances.
