So I guess the question then becomes, how do we define an LCI and where do we draw the line on which updates qualify and which ones don’t?
It gets frustrating, right? Usually that BMW blog is pretty accurate. BMW leaks stuff every now & again. If I get a 2024 & they change the bumper design, I'll be HOT! That's my least favorite bit of the G87, followed by those squares on the rear bumper.

Maybe BMW is concerned folks won't order 2024s if they say too much about the 2025? They say it'll be a full LCI, maybe more folks wait. I know I would.

I did watch the BMWBlog video on youtube. He asked why no forged wheels on the M2. They said to keep the price down since the 2 series is the entry. Folks that want the forged wheels can get them later. I didn't like that answer, but I get it. My spec is over 70K with the HAS port installed. I never thought I'd buy a 70K car, ever.
