The VINs of M3 vs. M340i are WBA and WBS(when produced in Germany). Those apply to M3/M4/M5/M8 true M vs. 3/4/5/8-series non-M and M-lite.
M2 also has VIN prefix of WBS when produced in Germany, but if 2023 onward M2 is produced in other areas, their VIN prefix would be different than WBS too.
The X non-M and its corresponding true M are produced in different areas and in different product type, so they have their own pairs of VINs.
E.g. NA built X3/X4/X5 M are 5YM and NA built X3/X4/X5 non-M and M-lite are 5UX.
