I'm curious to know if it doesn't have anything to do with the addition of the secondary, smaller, radiator/cooler. IMO, it'd make perfect sense to remove the foglights and adjust the ducts to funnel air to the brakes/cooler concurrently.

The step transmission is a $1,3xx option (if I remember correctly) +$100 or so for the paddle shifters. They'd need to build in at least $800-1000 additionally into base cost of the car to compensate for the lack of the manual transmission option. This only brings the base price of the car that much higher up, before all the options. As a side note, what kind of enthusiast car comes in automatic only?

I was thinking about the vert with fogs as well. The only idea I could really conjure up, somewhat contradictory to my previous post, but was to give the vert the "loaded up" look. The vert will be more expensive than the coupe, as we could all expect. I don't really imagine a lot of vert owners really "racing" their 335s around as much as I would a coupe owner, but hey I could be wrong...

this NEEDS to be straightened out though - other people have quoted only AT and DCT as tranny options

But, based on BMW NA press release, it seems the hood is new. I assme the lenght of the hood is now the same length as the M3's.
Alos, the LCI coupe is longer the the pre LCI which confirms thier statment. From BMW NA press release: It all begins with proportions. The new, long hood powerfully symbolizes BMW's loyalty to the inherently balanced inline-6 engine. The long wheelbase, short overhangs |

I think it makes perfect sense. Out of the E90/91/92/93, the one that is realistically going to see the most real track use is the E92. You don't buy an E93 for real track work (maybe just for the hell of it, but definitely not for competitive track driving--the weight penalty alone wouldn't be worth it). Same with the sedan and wagon. And if they're trying to get more cooling to the brakes, the current design is plenty ample for street use. But at a track you can never have enough brake cooling. So I imagine it's a nod to those who would probably drive the E92 harder and faster than any of the other models.

From the BMW website: e90: 3593lbs e92: 3571lbs If anything I find it odd they added the e93, but there are people who like the verts.

Like it alot. Just 2 things I hate, black mirrors = cheap. And the scolloped out bottom edge of the headlights = hideous. They have lost the agressive, squinty eyes.
