I wonder how many have driven both back to back?

Both cars feel exactly the same below 4000rpm, there's too little torque difference to feel any difference. 116i 240nm on over boost, 118i 250nm.
It's only at higher rpm that you feel any difference when the map and slightly larger exhaust allow the higher power.

Depends how many times you drive pushing for the red line and whether that is worth the extra money. Both cars feel exactly the same driving at low and mid-range rpm.
