And actually, there has always been sharing of engines between series. The 525 shared the same engine as the 325. E34 with E36, E39 with E46, and now E60 with E90.
The current 550i shares the same engine as the 750i/Li, 650Ci, and X5 4.8i.

Of course tdc there's always been sharing. But I cant remember the last time in america that we saw the top engine in a higher level chassis going into a lower level chassis. Everything else is fair game, of course.
But come on guys, of course you can option it to be more than 38. You can option a lot of cars like that to be 38k. When I was looking at the Z, I was looking at around 37k for a well-equipped Track version ('05ish, i guess it was)
