All F10s have turbos now, right?

Maybe stating the obvious but wanted to make sure I wasn't missing anything. I didn't realize until the other day that the 528i now comes with a 2.0L (4 cylinder) turbo charged engine. I know the 535i and 550i's are both turbocharged and the new M5 is turocharged as well. I guess BMW has decided they love them some turbochargers. Kind of just thinking out loud so I can get corrected if I am off base.

Nope, well at least in Europe they still carry the 530i which has a slightly updated 272hp version of the familiar R6/I6.
Everything else is turbo'd.

Of course, I hate it and got the last 6-cylinder 523i available locally a month or so ago...
