My new 2016 F80 M3 LCI arrived

mlovernotafighter · 07-26-2015, 12:37 PM

Looks great! Forgot about the ambient lighting options, that was cool that you really showed that to us well.

khanyam4 · 07-26-2015, 01:53 PM

I got nothing but love for lci m cars.

Boot-Time as requested. Think my 435i was much slower.

Much faster! Thanks for sharing.

Zirenz2006 · 07-26-2015, 03:07 PM

Looks great!

So it looks like the interior got the same LCI updates the F30 got, additional matte chrome pieces around window switches and vents, glossy trim around AC/heat controls with additional ambient lighting around that area.

It looks like the cup holder cover isn't the new sliding cover like the F30, is this correct?

Either way looks beautiful

It's because it uses the 4 series headlights which have not been updated yet.

Correct

PodDoc · 07-26-2015, 03:16 PM

Do you know if this is actually new hardware or just a software upgrade?

Fluffy bastard · 07-26-2015, 03:17 PM

Well, it look like tail lights needs additional wire retrofitting.

MParallel · 07-26-2015, 03:20 PM

Beautiful car.

Don't know. My dealer neither. I guess yes, cause it's faster (see boot-time video).

Hardware. And likely some new software specific to that new hardware.

No doesn't slide.

Yes I guess.

Tony007 · 07-26-2015, 03:29 PM

Your car really looks fantastic!!

Although I'm kinda bummed that they are not installing the matching the black chrome trim strips on the doors. The F30 gets matching trim strips and it looks totally killer.

BPMSport · 07-26-2015, 03:36 PM

Wow! The lights look so much better. I'm sure many will retrofit the new lights. Congrats on the awesome ride!

Ah yes. I see now from your pics. This is odd. I thought the even stopped putting the cup holder covers in 2015 cars? So it seems it to return for 2016, if there is no sliding version.

The non-matching door card trim is another head-scratcher along with the cup holders. Maybe a case off a very early build having some inconsistencies?

The reason why I was looking forward to a sliding cup holder cover is because I'd like to put my iPhone 6Plus forward of the cup holder and use the tab on top of the cover (slid open/forward) to secure the phone.

Can you guys provide comparison pics for what you are talking about? Just need to see it to understand haha

My iPhone 6plus lies there landscape and doesn't fly away. Had that before in the 435i Conv.

I don't even see it live on the car in the garage. Maybe tomorrow out in the sun (its night now over here).

Aloosh · 07-26-2015, 03:55 PM

I knew waiting for a 2016 would be worth it in one way or another

Jackbmw · 07-26-2015, 03:57 PM

Congrats on your new M3

The new rear lights are great

I see that you picked up your new bimmer in BMW Titan in ZH
