To use BMW's marketing terms, the M340 is the "athlete", or "Road-ready vehicles enhanced with the epic engineering of BMW M". That means the M340i and 330i are in the same category as road-ready vehicles, with the same WBA prefix(if made in Germany).
The M3, on the other hand, is the "powerhouse", or "Legendary vehicles fully developed and engineered for performance-obsessed drivers", with WBS prefix to prove it.
So according to BMW, M340i and M3 are 2 different cars for 2 different types of buyers.
