No Performance Suspension for my non-Sport 128i?

I was under the impression that there were two different versions of the BMW Performance Suspension for the 1-series, one for the 135i and ZSP-equipped 128i, and another for the non-ZSP 128i, with different parts numbers for the kits and springs. However my local BMW dealer says, based on my VIN number, that there is no BMW suspension upgrade possible for my non-ZSP 128i. My number is WBAUP93508VF***** (I'd like to keep the last five numeric characters confidential) and the dealer says there needs to be an "M" character in there somewhere.

Can someone tell me if this is true, and, if so, why? :iono: Maybe Dan @ United? :roundel:

Spring P/Ns could be different for a differently optioned 128i, so don't you other 128i owners order the same springs as NoZSP ;-)

Check with Dan first.
