Is there E92 LCI facelift this year?

alanchan · 08-31-2009, 05:06 PM

hey guys,

I search the web and seem like not alot talk about the facelift of the E92 coupes.

does anyone have knowledge on this topic?

I am planning to get a coupe (prefer a 2010 model)
I hate to get one now and 2 months later they come out with a new LCI model

Thanks

It definitely won't be 2010 model, but perhaps an early 2011 model release in spring 2010. Just rumours.

Actually, disguised prototypes have been spotted around Germany and rumours have it that the LCI e92 might be unveiled officially at the Frankfurt Auto Show. If true, then release as a 2010 model is quite possible.

the dealer said he will give the same pricing as 2009 if I order a 2010 model.

According to BMW, the early 2010 E92 will probably remain the same look (pre-LCI).

I think I better hold off the order ...... thanks

I didn't bother waiting for the 2010 model, since no DCT was included. They can stuff the cosmetic changes up their asses, the car looks good as it is anyway.

i thought the LCI e92's were going to start hitting the showroom for early '10?

Not until next year, won't be at Frankfurt.

Frankfurt is focused mostly on the ED concept, X1 and 5 series GT production version. Not to mention the X6 and 7 series hybrid.

I bet this will just blow over and all the 2010s will be virtually the same as the 09s...

Too close to "time to go," and not enough leaked info. I doubt it's much of anything or else it would have leaked already.

Im guessing the spring release date is for Europe since they get all the cool stuff earlier, probably won't get here until fall next year as 2011 model
