BMW VIN Decoder Incorrect Power

mofomat · 03-09-2017, 05:19 AM

Got the chassis number of my new M4 CP this morning. I've inputed it into two different BMW VIN decoders and although the spec on both is correct, including 7MA Competition Package, the stated kW is 317, which is 431hp. Is this just a case of the VIN being incorrect and showing the non-CP power instead of the CP power?

Could somebody with a CP car maybe check their VIN?

I used this one.

Same results on mine. Wouldn't worry about it.

Just someone being lazy at BMW not correcting the data for CP cars.

Much like their website.
