Ironically, BMW, the company that was charging a heated seat subscription, is also the same company that still lies about its horsepower numbers today.

Which way? I've seen advertising use wheel hp instead of crank which is what I assume to be the default.

Their performance models often make more power than what they advertise. One modern example.)

In the positive direction. Many of the new M3s and M4s, and even the Toyota Supra that they manufacture, have been marketed as making less power than cars that they will easily beat in a drag race.

B58 "240/140/supra" claim 330, actual numbers around 350/370 in some cases.
