Wow, thanks for the compilation... never knew the Z1 and Z3 used the E30 and E36 codes.

Seems to be missing the variants' codes for the newer generation, where BMW has separated sedans, tourings, coupes and cabrios....

1 Series:
E81 1 Series 3-Door Hatch
E82 1 Series Coupe
E?? 1 Series Cabrio (couldn't find the code for the cab...)

3 Series:
E91 3 Series Touring
E92 3 Series Coupe
E93 3 Series Cabrio

6 Series:
E64 6 Series Cabrio

X Series:
E71 X6

Z Series:
E86 Z4 Coupe
