LCI E92's have arrived...

Anneka @ Sytner · 03-18-2010, 04:01 PM

Thought I'd share, the LCI E92's (and E93's) landed on our shores overnight. I noticed a few being transported this morning during my journey to work.
First impressions (from what I could see), the M sport wheels look good and the rear LED lights. So naturally, feeling intrigued I decided to find out more and made the journey over to Harold Wood this afternoon for a preview.

E93 320i's...

E92 M Sport (apologies it was hiding)...

And last but not least better pictures of the E92 M Sport...

*The lights are much brighter in real life than they appear to be in the pictures.
**Please excuse the height of these cars - they are still on transport blocks

Also, the paddle shifts have been modified so that one of them is used to shift up and the other shifts down.

Hope you enjoyed

Thanks Anneka - great sneak pics!

No LMB then?

Seriously glad they've finally sorted the paddle shifters out - never did make sense pushing and pulling!

How were the 313M's in the flesh? Are they a bit darker than, say, the 230s?

Tunna_uk · 03-18-2010, 04:06 PM

I wonder if the LED front Halo bulbs can be bought....mmm

E90Yaz · 03-18-2010, 04:08 PM

Loving the finally WHITE Halo sidelights!! The SE looks hideous!! But Msport is much sexier!!

Mr.N · 03-18-2010, 04:31 PM

Love that m-sport coupe!
The front looks real aggressive.

beemerbird · 03-18-2010, 04:34 PM

I like the look of the E92 M sports! Front end looks well smart.

Dare I say those alloys look quite similar to the S line alloys fitted to the A5, just less 'white'.

Nice wheels.

Elie335 · 03-18-2010, 04:43 PM

man its getting near the 7 series, I'm not a fan.

No Le Mans Blue yet.

The wheel inserts are shade of mid antracite, look slightly darker in flesh and the outer spokes/rim is polished.

Beemerbird - certainly are resemblances, great looking wheels

+1 - Anneka, can you find out if these new whiter LED halo 'bulbs' can be fitted in the front of our non LCi cars?

Even though my E90 M3 is LCi, it has the E92/93 front so is pre LCi if that makes sense. I have already swapped out the yellow ish looking bulbs and fitted some white LED based ones purchased from ebay, but suffer from radio interference like many others do. I would like to swap them for the OEM BMW ones if possible.

I reckon many on the forum would be up for buying these

Almost looks like an M3 front bumper - likin' it lots

SiKkBaSs · 03-18-2010, 05:03 PM

White halo rings are a win.

The E90 LCI was more of a success IMO based on these pictures with bringing in changes to the overall look. The 3 series is starting to look very executive from the pics shown

.

Front looks good. Put a few mods on it and it'll look fine as hell

acerboo · 03-18-2010, 05:52 PM

looks good but no better than the old one just different certainly wont make me rush to the dealers for a swop not sure the rear lights are an improvement either, and the door mirrors are hideous!, i dont have a problem with the paddles as they are, think ill be waiting to see what the new model will look like.

DrDurt · 03-18-2010, 06:01 PM

look pretty jacked up, even the sport is sittin high in the front

BGM · 03-18-2010, 06:13 PM

i might pop down to sytner at the weekend and take a peek!

i think what we all want to know is though, can the paddles be retro fitted??

DO WANT!

(not fussed about the actual car though)

JLR1969 · 03-18-2010, 06:47 PM

The silver blades on the SE front bumper look pretty poor and pointless.

G82Dude · 03-18-2010, 06:56 PM

"Eyebrows" awful. Look cheap and tacky ala Halfords. Bad move BMW. 313M wheels nice!

sheps · 03-18-2010, 07:00 PM

Anneka,

Has the M3 also been LCI'd yet?
Am I right thinking all new M3's get start/stop tech now?

zltm089 · 03-18-2010, 07:27 PM

Loooks really good!!!....the front looks much better, but shame about the big dumbo mirrors!

Silver Shadow · 03-18-2010, 07:40 PM

Like the front end and rear lights.

Love the front halo's.

Dont like the wheels and huge wing mirrors. (Just like the wing mirrors on my LCI E90).

peterg1965 · 03-19-2010, 02:21 AM

Those M Sport alloys are dogs danglies!

singh182 · 03-19-2010, 02:30 AM

looks good, not to keen on the new front light styling and grill.

xenon · 03-19-2010, 02:56 AM

Wheels are nice, the dumbo mirrors are horrid.
