WTF is up with the Audi S side mirrors? That's all I need... brand confusion.

Sales must be really shitty for BMW to be releasing bumper updates so soon after launch of the E89. While I definitely think the front bumper treatment is a night&day improvement over the previous, the rear looks out of place... like the Z4's having trouble pooping out shit. Bubble ass is not becoming of it.

Interior updates I cannot complain about. The new option looks absolutely wicked!

I suspect that BMW's banking on the fascia updates to carry it's ECU enhancements to sale, as nobody in their right mind would pay for just improved engine management without looking at aftermarket for comparison. My guess will be that there will be more unlocking of the ECU as the years go by.

10mm lowering... that's pretty conservative since the E89's still riding high as if on stilts. 25mm lowering would have been better.

And AUTO only for the is? FAIL!
