1er will be a relatively high volume and more-or-less entry-level (at least in the public's perception). It won't fetch the same kind of price point as the relatively up-market Z4. For the vast majority of buyers, it will be a high-end compact day-to-day car that just happens to looks great and perform (hopefully) even better.

Apples to oranges...

A 135i would be a mistake, as it would squeeze the M1 into too tight a corner. I'd prefer to see an entry-level offering (128i) and a premium model (130i) and then have the M1 as the true must-have performance coupe of the decade... Then we're talking $40K+...
