So, most likely, this facelift will appear on the 2013 revamp coming in January?

The headlight housing looks exactly the same except the halos are finally white from the factory. Nice!

I just did a close up on the shot above and they look like the new 6 series LED without the flat bottom. Hope we can easily swap out for these new headlights if anyone cares to update.

Consider it a race.

The prize is +1000 to the first to get theirs updated...

(And if we get a group buy going - let me know and I will be in)

You'll likely need more than $1000 to swap the lights tho! BMW charge silly money for parts, so probably too costly for a simple change of colour for me.

we have the LUX eyes, which is plenty good with me, and I would hardly call this a true LCI - we did indeed catch a break

Did anyone else notice there is a small hump in the boot lid above the light - not a biggie but a distinction from the previous LCI pics we saw

What does it all mean!?!

Yep, it's the satellite radio antenna, so only in US models I believe. My car's humps are all in the right places.

Like the extra orange reflectors on the front fenders, luckily we do not have this feature in Oz.

sad to say but 2013 is exactly like 2012. no change at all except the price. the 35is is not loaded with more standard options like premium audio, comfort access, etc.

So I guess my 2013 won't have these changes? It was just built this week.

No, the LCI for the E89 is MY2014 in the US ... The Official World Premiere is in March ...

I hope the 35i gets the 320bhp N55.

I guess the 35is will be replaced by a M tuned version, like the 1 series M135i.

Painted diffuser is for all 35is models. If you get the m package on any other model, it will be black.
