M Performance is not just about "cosmetics"

X1 and Z4M35i are purely quasi-M cars as a business case could not be found to transform them into full M Vehicles. So this is the next best thing.

The Sporthatch 1er is not coming to the USA , neither is the M135i.
When the Coupe and Cabrio appear then the M235i will come to the USA.
