Yeah, 503hp by BMW standards is 503hp at the wheels. It may not handle quite as well (but it will be no slouch there either), but it's likely to nail the acceleration thing, especially with AWD. In a straight line, it will embarrass you, even a ZL1 until you get well into illegal speeds.

The real question is after 50,000 miles, will it grenade the engine, have the ECUs blank out, fry turbos, etc?

And yes, they hit these cars hard with the ugly stick.
