The 3er is selling too great to change anything now so a refresh will occur in mid-late 2015 with a possible introduction in the 3ers largest market Germany and the 2015 IAA. There won't be excessive or drastic changes , just a subtle re freshening. This will give the M3 its two years on the market.

tl;dr: It's a safe bet to count on the LCI and ZCP about 20-22 months after the F80 is available for sale in the US.

I've never been one for front spoiler lips on cars, but I was pleasantly surprised by how badass it looked on the M4 concept. I agree that it will be a must. hopefully, they make it out of plastic instead of CF since I have a feeling I'll be going through them about as routinely as the GT3 guys do their lips (which Porsche wisely made in plastic).
not sure they'll fit. aren't the F80 kidneys taken from the 435, which is slightly different? |

The exhaust and diffuser on the M4 Concept looked good...

Hoping for the CFRP lip and diffuser plus what seemed to be an M performance exhaust on the M4 concept. Can you give us clues on what goodies will be offered? |

http://www.f30post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=901686 F30 LCI is already in the production pipeline. Looks like the 20-22 delay between the launch of the F80 M3 and the introduction of the LCI and ZCP is fairly accurate. Edit: It might be an even shorter delay than that. F30 LCI might be out very close to its reveal at the 2015 IAA in Frankfurt.

M3/M4 Competition Package speculation?
Really getting ahead of myself here (and a little greedy, admittedly), but any wild guesses on what MY it will come out, and what it will include? HP bump, just susp/software tweaks, cosmetic, etc. Based on E9X M3's or M5's... Who knows... Just posting a random thought...

My guess is some of the to-be-announced M performance parts will be included, possibly a performance exhaust, very slight power increase (+5 to +10 HP), 5 to 10mm suspension drop, LCD tail lights, alcantara steering wheel.

Things like LED tail lights are $$$$ in regards to development costs, so they need to amortized by BMW over tens of thousands of units, not just a few thousands Competition Package models.

I would not be surprised if all cars get LED tails during an LCI.
I would expect slight hp bump, lower and improved suspension and steering and a few cosmetic items. Might make CCBs mandatory plus special wheels. Exhaust would be nice and an additional ECU/TC setting. Take a look at the M5, it should be similar to that. |
