I do know that...just stating that since there was some speculation in this thread about it starting in Fall.

And by the way, it sounds as if "some" of the facelifted parts will be on the car in Fall production, including some interior pieces and some say the hideous mirrors so meet safety regulations.

Will updates for the 2010 e92s (ie:navigation system, temp controls) begin in March as well or will they be implemented as soon as 2010 models are being manufactured?

Those mirrors are

and it looks like a 4x4. Ouch.

Only bumpers, headlights, taillights and mirrors......I don´t like it.

E92-Lighting · 09-24-2009, 11:44 AM

i say pre-lci looks a lot better still

Joop! · 09-24-2009, 03:36 PM

Not yet worth trading my current E92 in for.

dxb335d · 09-24-2009, 03:40 PM

Hmmm not sure.

cstavaru · 09-24-2009, 03:56 PM

The e92 current headlights are perfect, so that's why changing anything will produce an uglier headlight. On the other hand, the back of the car could be improved, and they don't show any signs of this (besides LED taillights).

Sorry for the bump - just realized this thread has some great posts in it.

Great to hear some confirmation (assuming your info is good - I'll give you the benefit of the doubt

). DSB will look great on the 3 series.

Speaking of that - will that color replace Montego? Or will it just be an additional color? Same thing for Vermillion (another nice color) - will that replace Barbera?

Also, will they call this car an early MY2011, similar to how the 5 series was an early MY2008 in March 2007?

While on the topic - any possible chance you have info on the E92/E93 M3 LCI, such as:

- Any front end changes? Or no?
- Any chance Monte Carlo Blue will be added to the normal palette?
- Any mechanical changes?

The mirror sucks!

J-boogey · 10-07-2009, 08:37 PM

not impressed as i was with the LCI E90 i'm glade i ordered my 010!

adrian1480 · 10-09-2009, 03:42 PM

hmmmmm.

will wait for the final pics.

this will be a big deal for me, as my lease ends next June and I'll be looking to get into a coupe or similar model from another manufacturer.

I think I'm down to the Caddy CTS, 335 coupe, or Audi A5/S5.

wonhizzle · 03-29-2010, 05:43 PM

not a big change....... sweeeet

Dirnegrey · 03-30-2010, 02:13 AM

looks badass..

PNF · 03-30-2010, 09:16 AM

well, I hope the new LCI LED light is a direct fit over pre-LCI.. if so..I am getting a set!
