this gen better than next??

of course i don't mean better overall as you'd expect overall evolutionary advances with the next-gen but specifically in terms of performance i'm wondering if the 135 may in retrospect represent a high-water mark for the 1 series non-M models, based on the assumption that the current 6 cyl. models will yield to the forthcoming 4 cylinders. my interest in this issue arises from my dilemma whether to replace my 128 now with a 135 or wait for the next gen; i've always been oriented to want the new model/new chassis etc. but in this case, with the efficiency trend in the industry, i'm wondering if the converse strategy might make more sense.
