Yes. I'd prefer the 128i over the GTI any day. I will not prefer the 125i over the GTI performance though. Please, don't blame me, it's BMW trying to leave sufficient distance to the M135i.
A 128i would have drawn some of the M135i buyers into the 128i. On the other hand, not offering the 128i will pull a lot of 125i prospects into the Golf as from now. So, as we debate, BMW is running some scenarios to check what to do with this new GTI offering...
