When you register the VIN for insurance = 135i. So he probably just didn't realize the difference, and I'm not sure I could blame him since it really doesn't show.
I guess that would make sense as the "is" parts aren't even installed at the factory they are installed at the port. Essentially they all leave the motherland as 135i then get the is stuff stateside. Which is why I couldn't get one in Europe
