This is total BS, the car must have been in the wrong gear when they dynoed becasue unless it's a turbo diesel, it IS NOT making 900+lb*ft of torque. If he dynoed in third gear it might look like the torque was higher than it was. Blown 6L vettes are making 600lb*ft and TT vipers in stock displacement get up to 800RWTQ, and they have almost double the displacement of the beamer. over 1000 flywheel torque would turn that 6 speed auto into shrapnel in first gear.
lets do some math: 956 torque to the wheels divide by .8 for drivetrain losses
1195 lb*ft @3000 RPMs
HP= tq*rpm/5252
hp=1195*3000/5252=682 flywheel HP @3000rpms multiply by .8 for drivetrain loss and you get 546 RWHP. you mean that the car only makes 44 more HP from 3000-4500RPMs (peak of 590RWHP @ 4500RPMs)
