Everything is how we would have expected. LED front and rear revised. No OLED.

Maybe rumors is that law changed, we shall see once the G30 hits the roads stateside. It may come stock full EURO LEDS

Confirmed plus video the M3 was updated as well...
The question is how much Click above for Video

What color is the M3 in the video.

I have a Feb 17 build for M3. Should I wait now?

mm22 · 01-16-2017, 08:15 PM

Weak. Yawn indeed... (for M4 owners)

Those will probably come with LCI 3.0 this time next year ;-)

drivethemachine · 01-16-2017, 08:18 PM

Sunset orange looks way better than Sakhir, IMO

Xtabi · 01-16-2017, 08:19 PM

Enhanced perceived quality

German marketing!

YMB-M3-J2 · 01-16-2017, 08:21 PM

This is great news for my current situation. M4 lease expiring in October and am ordering an M3. I was really hoping it received the new headlights because i love the look of the angel eyes and the long LED light strip. The option of black 666 wheels was an unexpected surprise because I do want the 20" larger wheels but dont like them in silver, now I dont have to worry about that.

Does anyone think that really bright red stitching is only on the red model? i wonder if YMB will get blue stitching? That would be awesome.

Are you referring to the pics on m-power.com? I saw the new brown on the F83 (or at least it looks new to me), but is there a new red? I think the featured F82 is Sakhir.

But what about the M3? Is that Tanzanite or Azurite or something new?

Hi: yes diesel upgrades to the latest B47/57 modular engines that are much better. We do have this option in Aus ;-)

For the M4 colours: look at the red M4 and brown M4 vert LCI's ;-). The red is definitely not a Sakhir!

So it's just perception that quality is better, it's not actually better???

Lol I saw that same thing.

dantm3 · 01-16-2017, 08:25 PM

You guys are crazy. I personally can careless about new headlights and tail lights standard. It gives it a slight better look but I personally want an m3 for the performance and overall package. I wish they would have done more to make it worth it for me. I will probably buy a cpo 2015 and save 20-30k as ordering a new one with a higher base doesn't make that big of a difference for better lighting.

Agree the brown is new or at least new to the M4 palette.

But I'm not sure I agree the M4 isn't Sakhir. It sure appears to be Sakhir to me. It looks reddish in some shots and more orange in others just like Sakhir does.

dmk08 · 01-16-2017, 08:27 PM

Updates look good. LED headlights standard is nice even tho I like the original LED design. Ill probably update my tail lights

LED headlights look the business but I'm happy with my pre-historic non-LCI LEDs.

Anyone know what they meant by double stitching on the instrument cluster as part of the M4 changes? The stitching looks the same as full leather option in the M4.

CRtoE92 · 01-16-2017, 08:34 PM

So the leather wrapped dashboard is now standard for M3/M4 without going for full leather?
