I'm coming from a GLS450 too and went with a 2020 x7 40iM. The ride is definitely more sporty. I cannot speak to the engine vs the GLS450 since I haven't pushed it yet, I'm still in the break-in period. My x7 is a few days old and only had 3 miles on it when I picked it up. I suspect based on the limited pushing I have done that it feels like it has more power then the GLS450 but it's too early to tell.
Who told you that you are in break in period?
Real in is something from the past today's engines don it need break in anymore unless you buy something really outdated.
The tolerances on bore and piston form and size are much higher and the measurement of the components is more accurate so parts fit correctly from a day one.
