When are the 2016's going to be ordered / built ?
Looking at used 2015's now but may wait for the 16's.
Any idea of what will change ? A salesman told me the lights might change to the "lasers" standard but don't know if that will up the price. |

US will not get Laser lights for sure, they are not DOT legal. Laser lights is most likely not to make it on the F8X at all anyhow. We might see the OLED taillights though... |

Looks like nothing spectacular changing except the tails

- I expect tails to change to LED, but is there a chance they could change the boot lid to CF (with the same chines as the CF roof) and the shape of the lens to match the M4? - Will they sort out the CF roof rack issue? - Minor trim details on the interior anticipated (like chrome accents) - Maybe a minor upgrade to iDrive? - Increase in the number of exterior and interior Individual colour options. I was hoping to get an ED for mid/late August for 2016 M3. Perhaps a chance, but not sure how to go about being one of the first on the books. |

So probably not worth waiting for '16 F80. They gave it a new product number so I though more changes were in the pipeline. Guess that's normal. Thanks for the info... and when are you doing ED? Late 2015 or next year? |

I never buy the 1st year model so planning on a 2016 ED as soon as it's available. Thinking Sept 2015 ED for a 2016. Have my build figured out and don't plan on changing unless something new is offered like a A La carte on the rear view camera 2016 F80 M3 AW/SO CF Roof Manual Options: Adaptive HK Black 19's

Since I want to order as soon as possible, I hope I'll be able to order in March, but I'm afraid it won't be possible before April. When do they usually introduce the LCI with production start July? I think it used to be in March/April, but no sure when exactly.
