Current plug for post 12/2009 328 according to RealOEM is: NGK LZFR6AP11GS -- BMW part 12120037663

The current plug for a 325/330 and earlier 328 continues to be:

Bosch FR-7-NPP-332 and NGK PLZFR6A-11S. Both now have the same bmw part number 12122158253. The NGK plugs is listed as "high power" while the original plugs are not.

It appears that BMW gave a single part number for both the Bosch and NGK plug that are the last ones listed on RealOEM, so that they can be used interchangeably at the dealer. Per the post on previous page:

Forgot to add that some of the new plugs [from the dealer] were NGK and some were BOSCH (same part numbers on each spark plug box).
I'd still prefer to use the same make for all 6.
