For this reason there was no 130i Coupé with the NA 3.0 I6 with 265 PS, but only the 125i Coupé with that same engine in 218 PS spec. This it will look like this for the top engines:
1/2 Series: 4 cylinders
3/4 Series: 6 cylinders
5/6 Series: 8 cylinders
7/8 Series: 12 cylinders

ONE problem with your theory...
The new F30
328i comes with a turbo four (
N20) block.
Btw... last month parked next to BMW's FIZ building(and fairly far from the public street!) I saw a white F20 hatch that had three spoke(or maybe two spoke wheels - like in the above photo) with dual tail pipes. I'm pretty sure it was a 135i "test car". And... it looked GOOD!
