the compacts are based on the same design chassis as the saloon/coupe versions ie. E36, E46. however, BMW cannot call them 318i's or 325i's because the saloon/coupe's are called 318i's, 325i's, etc; they are therefore known as 318Ti's and 325Ti's, etc. this seperates them from saloon/coupe models.
the 'T' doesnt actually stand for anything as far as i know, it just seperates them from others of that series.
BMW no longer make Compacts or Ti's anymore, as the launch of the E87 (the 1 Series) has replaced the compact
im not a car geek, i just get told this on product knowledge courses that i have to attend due to my job!! i work for a BMW dealership
