Is an Audi S5 which is the original Audi sport car now a less of a car even though the more recently developed RS5 line is the premium sport line of Audi? Who cares, don't get OFFENDED, love your car, don't hate on the brand(ing)...
Seems like you're foaming more than the "///M guys" about this.

A question for you: if I go to bmwusa.com or to global bmw.com site, how come they separate the 3-series and M cars, and the M340i is not under the "M" link?
Apparently you're not clicking in far enough when you're on the BMW USA website 'build your vehicle' option, because the writing on the wall is clearly right there:

Where's the "M"340i in the range of Ms listed on the bmw m website?
I'm not sure, you may want to contact them and tell BMW USA they're missing a car from their website but all the other ones are there - M550i, X6M50i, etc.
