Sport plus BHP Down on standard cars?

Has anyone noticed that the sport plus models are down on BHP compared with normal specs on the BMW website approx 4bhp? wonder what the reasons are for this? I assume that its a mistake.

Talking of using different figures, I always forget that BMW acceleration times are always quoted as 0-62 and not 0-60. Need to bear this in mind when comparing other manufacturers.

For example, was reading this earlier on the Insignia VXR it quotes the 321bhp VXR as 0-60 in 5.6 secs. Sounds respectable until you read further down the page where Opel quotes 0-62 in 6.0 secs for a mechanically identical Insignia OPC. Not so good compared to most faster BMs. A 335i would certainly pi55 all over the VXR if this is the case.
