Top-end BMW is more fun. Better-sounding speakers, more comfortable seats, snappier response (not unlike SSD vs HDD seek time), etc. You might not get above 60 in the city but if you want to have fun you can take it out to the country and hope you don't get a ticket

Expensive cars have benefits to the driver which are not related to other people's perception. The same cannot be said of diamonds.

That's a pretty narrow definition of "benefit."
