I went from a 2011 320+BHP WRX STi to the 520d M Sport (with a load of options) so I know what you are talking about.
Two totally different cars of course. The STi could have lost me my licence in 3rd, and didn't break sweat at anytime, and I chickened out way before the car.
The F10 is much more refined, and 99% of the time the 520d is more than powerful enough.
Can I go from 15mph to 115mph in 4th gear alone? No.
Can I travel the length of the country at motorway speeds on a tank and still get over 50mpg?, yes.
