The smallest BMW sold in Canada is available as a coupe or cabriolet. In either case, buyers have the choice between two 3.0L 6-cylinder inline engines. On the 128i models, it produces 230 hp and can be paired with a 6-speed manual or automatic gearbox. Both these transmissions are also offered for the 135i whose engine delivers 300 hp. The 1 M version has supposedly been retired this year but is still available.
