I fully remember seeing a loaded 135i for near $100k (by near I mean give or take +/- 10k - very broad estimate). A M3 is around $120k loaded.

But you're right on the 135i vs X1 20d. In the UK, a 20d costs 24.5k, a 135i is 30.5... so 6k difference, around A$10,000 more than the price of x1 20d. So you're right, a base 135i should be around A$60-65K. Perhaps the one I saw was fully loaded with BMW Performance parts. Sorry for the confusion..
