Good point

OK, how about turning them into BBQ grilles? It would leave some very interesting patterns on the hamburger

That would be too soon.

E92 as an example:
MY2007 -1st model year for E92
MY2008
MY2009
MY2010
MY2011 LCI
MY2012 LCI
MY2013 LCI

F32/F82:
MY2014 -1st model year for F32/F33
MY2015 -1st model year for F82/F83
MY2016
MY2017
MY2018 LCI
MY2019 LCI
MY2020 LCI - EOP pretty much confirmed for June 2020.

Tell me how that timeframe worked out for LCI e90 last time around vs f80 LCI as a MY16.

Do note that the introduction of the Competition Package and M4 LCI are unrelated events. They will not necessarily coincide in time .

Agree- I was just stating that LCI for F82 is likely coming as a MY17 instead of 18 due to F80 being LCI as a MY16. Comp package can come sooner or later.

In any case, it's going to happen ~3.5 years from the start of F32 production. That means sometime in early 2017. Theoretically it could either be a mid-model-year MY2017 or as the kick-off to an early MY2018, but in practice an LCI typically dictates the start of a new model year. That's how it went with the E92 3/M3 LCI at the start of MY2011 back in March 2010.

Same, aligned with the series car (sedan body)

E90 M3
MY2008 - 1st model year
MY2009 - LCI (same MY as standard 3er)
MY2010 - LCI
MY2011 - LCI and EOP
MY2012 - N/A
MY2013 - N/A

The point here is that all cars only get 3 model years of LCI production. We know the F32/F82 will go EOP in June 2020 (MY2020). Working backwards means LCI has to start with MY2018.

*****FORGOT the E46... Same scenario as the E9x
MY2000 E46 was released
MY2001 E46 M3 was released
MY2002
MY2003
MY2004 LED TAIL LIGHTS
MY2005 Competition Package
MY2006 Competition Package


We shall wait and see

[dgp]

Comp package was introduced as a MY11 on E92, correct?

Yes, further validates my point. Every single BMW model (within the past 15 years, that I can identify) only has 3 Model Years of LCI. No more, no less.

Competition package is all over the map. F10 was different than E90/E92, etc.

Correct, and E90 M3.

Yeh for sure. I'm predicting I can upgrade to an M3 LCI ZCP before the M4 LCI is even out.

Didnt the M5 comp pack come out before the M6? Or am I off there?

Did F10M and F13M ZCP coincide with the F10 and F13 LCI?

For F10M yes, F13M, no.

Thought you guys might find this interesting - I went to the dealer today for my first mandatory service and was making small talk with my SA about a few things. I eventually asked him if he had heard anything on the competition package and he said that they had actually just gotten some news on it this past Wednesday. This is pretty much verbatim on what he said the features will be:

-Staggered wheel setup with lightweight alloys
-Revised MDM
-Slightly lowered ride height
-Performance exhaust
-It will be a ~$4500 option and can be ordered starting early 2016
-There will NOT be a HP bump
----------------------------------------------------

I found that last tidbit most interesting, as it is contrary to what many have speculated. Can anyone confirm or deny this news? I haven't seen anything on here related to it, so I'm skeptical myself.

Thanks

[Jackie Chiles]

Interesting, and thanks.

Any possibility of getting a copy of the print out the dealer had?

[CanAutM3]

Just another source of hearsay IMO.

[secretariat]

Revised MDM? What the Euro MDM?

He seemed to be reading it from an email. I can check and see if he will forward it to me, but I doubt it.

Oh it certainly could be, I'm simply passing along what he said. I will say though, this guy has always been more than honest with me in the past.

[DrtyJrze]

I doubt that's all they do. I think a hp bump is mandatory.

But if that's really it I feel sorry for the people who waited and lost seat time for crap you could have got a year ago.
