You can look at this from another perspective
not so long ago a V8 had similar acceleration times as you get from a BMW 4 pot now
The V8 floated like a boat and handled like a bucket of bolts
The V8 would get at best 16 mpg and you are getting 53.8mpg and the 1er handles fantastically

Lucky 'us', we get the performance, the fun and the ecco to boot
