I agree about the competition; but I don't think the 1er engine choice is dictated by that. Otherwise, why would the 3er get the same engine? I believe, as spinzero, that the 3er is dictating the engine in the 128.
BTW, the GTI has 200hp according to VW. Mine makes a little more, according to the values sampled by my ECU (~ 215hp).
I don't think the 128 will be $24k, either; my prediction is $26,900. If it's $24k I'll buy the damn thing on principle LOL.
