I have to agree with those who believe the 135is (if there is one) will in substance be a 135i with a factory installed PPK. It will probably come with a higher level of standard equipment than the 135i. M Sport would likely be included and probably there will be some cosmetic additions that have already shown up outside of North America.

Just look at the 335is coupe to get an idea and that should tell you something.

Due to the increasingly oppressive US fuel economy rules small cars with big motors will see large price increases as a means of rationing them. Manufacturers will aim to sell fewer units at higher margins to avoid lowering their average fuel economy for the smaller vehicle class.
