Anyone have any more info on this??..will we see this "facelift" for MY 2010 beginning production 09/09? or is this for 2011?..why would there be spy shots for a 2011 out this early though...

I saw a rumor on a forum that it may be introduced in March 2010 as a MY 2011.

looks like the dash / climate controls have changed.

voltron1011 · 08-03-2009, 03:30 PM

Wider track like the LCI E90? Any info on this?

Info I got was that E92/E93 would also get some grooves to hood, as E90/E91 got in LCI... interesting to see that they are not visible in those pictures.

Otherwise as it can clearly be seen, there is no big changes coming. Passive eyebrow as E90/E91 LCI has, some new bumpers and thats about it. Couple of new colours are coming as well + some new upholstery combinations. I also heard that the 335i will get a minor power increase.

Care to elaborate?

not to mention the hideous Lexus IS side mirrors as well as the larger than necessary sides mirrors on the current C klasse...

Its a new Euro requirement, all the MFG's HAVE to make them big. Too big of a hassle to designate certain mirrors for Europe only, so everyone has to suffer...

The coupe supposed to be introduced/refreshed one year after the sedan, however, this is so late, something must be up. Maybe BMW is going to run the e9X series one more year longer than they had originally planned. Or maybe they've just kept the facelift coupe hidden better than the sedan.

Just like the current E90 looks better than yours?

no panic people, it will turn out very nice..

MrHarris · 08-03-2009, 04:08 PM

I really hope I can replace the tails on the E92 M3. I hope it doesn't change shape like the E90.

Craig@SupremePower · 08-03-2009, 04:19 PM

Wow those mirrors are horrid!!!

Addicted2Boost · 08-03-2009, 04:31 PM

the side mirrors don't flow well at all

samchoi604 · 08-03-2009, 04:32 PM

i honestly don't see any difference compared to the current E92.. bet 99% of other people on the road won't care or see the difference either

ianbiz · 08-03-2009, 04:33 PM

new Ac controls!!

Big Windy · 08-03-2009, 04:36 PM

+1000 on the ugly mirrors. I wonder why they went that route?

The led tails are going to be sick, and LED turn signals up front will be great as well.
