Just for the sake of getting a 6 cylinder engine vs sewing machine ticking clacking sounding 4 banger is enough of a reason to go after 340/c43/s4 etc.

I understand both of your points, but let me elaborate. I don’t understand why anyone would buy anything less than the six cylinder for the same reason as yours. I’ve had plenty of four cyclinder BMW loaners and was always aware that they did not excuse a premium feel.
Why spend extra money on a BMW over something like a well equipped Accord or some such car, but then go cheap on the engine. And it’s not about performance. It’s about the silky smoothest and effortless performance and it still gets great gas mileage.
