Better Chassis, much more powerful engines, better tranny and better tech. Sure it doesn't have the NA I6 but its torquier and far more reliable.
It has nothing to do with performance just like the E39 M5s selling for way over $100k, one at near $200k, have nothing to do with performance in anyway. Similar to how a Porsche RSK can be worth $3M when it's slower and handles worse than a 20 year old $9k Boxster street car...
