welcome!
First off, E89 is a low volume seller and there is a great lease program on the 2015 right now. Another member posted something like $380/mo lease for a 28i with some good options. I know you wanted CPO and I am not sure if you are just fundamentally adverse to leasing but I wanted to make sure you were aware of these great lease deals
For your original question, if you wife is just looking for styling then I think the 3.0i 6MT model is a great one since it will avoid the possible fuel injector and fuel pump issues of the 35i and 35is
(I am personally biased, and think the N54 + DCT combo is amazing and should at least be test driven before you make your final decision)
Lastly, I would really negotiate hard. The E89 is under appreciated and any example you find on the lot likely has sat for a long time. (My car sat for 6 months so I was able to get a below invoice deal, for example...)
