While yes, the published curb weights are 550lbs different, I have seen some 128i's actually weigh in at 3k or slightly under, so that gap isn't as big as it sounds. Yes, 275lbs is still a big difference but the power-weight ratio is starting to close.

Fiesta - 202hp to 2720 lbs = 13.47 lbs/hp
128i - 230hp to 3100 lbs = 13.48 lbs/hp
