E92 LCI vs E92 - picture comparison

catch · 01-17-2010, 12:48 PM

i love the new tails, rear bumper and side skirts, dont like the front bumper, and HATE the side mirrors!

Doesn't look like we can directly swap the taillights huh?
Maybe its the just the angle of the pics, but the LCI's look like they don't wrap around the body as far.

SLOWERtraffickeepRIGHT · 01-17-2010, 02:01 PM

its ok i guess. it looks way less agressive. R they adding more power???

dimabimmer · 01-17-2010, 02:24 PM

not bad.
rear view mirrors look good in new model
i wish these two were compared in same color.

tizzyd · 01-17-2010, 02:25 PM

the front is weeeeak. doesn't look aggressive anymore

persian54 · 01-17-2010, 02:34 PM

I want those taillights...

BMWGator · 01-17-2010, 02:47 PM

WTF is up with those horizontal bar things on the front? I would rip those out as the first mod. Front looks horrible!

Not impressed at all.

alms21 · 01-17-2010, 02:52 PM

I still think the E90 LCI blows the E92 away. The rear fenders are much more pronounced in the E90. The E92 just looks too long for a coupe.

c-who · 01-17-2010, 02:55 PM

Don't like the front at all....

BMWjames · 01-17-2010, 03:05 PM

at least they made the tail lights better...

///mbimmer · 01-17-2010, 03:08 PM

e90 > e92

BayMoWe335 · 01-17-2010, 03:09 PM

The front is just awful. Everything else is different, but not really better. I only would consider the tail lights.

CPI · 01-17-2010, 03:15 PM

Thanks for putting these up!

I think I will have to see it in person when it comes out. Ill have to hold up on my comments till I see it. Those mirrors are HUGE lol!!

marcel b · 01-17-2010, 03:32 PM

curious how the new M-package will look. To be hones, I am not really that convinced about the facelift. The mirrors are just ugly. The front is not as nice as before. Strange the lines of the grill don't go down in the bumper anymore. Now there is this black hole with these chrome bars.... the back lights look nice, back bumper as well, but not that big of a difference. Overall, if I would need to choose, I would take the old version.

BMWCadet · 01-17-2010, 03:33 PM

The LCI looks better than the Pre-LCI. I'm at least adult enough to admit that. I think it looks sharp.

First thing that crossed my mind are the bars on the 458 Italia - its a prominent lower bumper design feature although on the 458 its part of the aerodynamic package. I wonder if it does something on the E92 LCI?

Its the angle of the side pics.

Look at the rear pics. The lights look like they're definitely swappable
