Sarafil and I had this discussion recently; the BMW website somewhat ambiguously suggests that the 3er "is" uses the N55 now (referring to the engine as "TwinPower"), but 'fil was confident it was still an N54. I found a BMW internal document on e90 post that shows he is right and the BMW website is wrong.

Z4 35is and 335is are still running N54. And 335is comes standard with 18" wheels.
Lease programs on the coupe are very strong right now. I'd strongly recommend running some numbers. 24/15k residual is 68% and 36/15k is 62%. +2% on either to do 12k. $1500 cash from BMW plus $750 loyalty if you qualify (not sure what the age cutoff is and if your E39 would qualify you).
