Was there a change in 2011 with the E89 ? Seen a few 23i 's advertised as just Sdrive and others described as Highline - what's the difference ?

High line was just a plusher trim/paint level didn’t last very long.
SDrive is the name for none MSport versions.

Hi, I think the highline editions didn’t have the M sport bumpers, the M sport cars are still called sdrive as that just signifies 2 wheel drive

How can you tell the difference between the MSports and standard z4 e89 for say year 2012 ?
Is it the following?
Wheel size, brake size, the dashboard has more of a 'line' design on the silver piece, steering wheel has M logo, manual gear stick has M logo, car sits lower?

The most obvious difference has to be the M sport bumpers, dashboards are the same as far as i know?
