MY18 F36 LCI speculation
From what I've read I am expecting the LCI to go into production in July.
I believe it will feature: - wider set headlights - full LED headlights - LED strip from headlights to grill (angel eyes) - LED tail lights - more aggressive front apron (non M sport) - broader front air intakes (non M sport) - cabin trim quality bump - climate control LED makeover - ambient lighting around the radio controls - increased build quality - faster internet with LTE hotspot - chrome accents around the seat and window buttons - chrome accents on the A/C vents - new graphics on the infotainment system My individual F36 wont go into production until January and that means I wont see it stateside until most likely April after driving it for week in Feb in Europe. I think I'm best off getting the dealer to redo my order for a MY18. I hope that's not an issue. |

I visited the dealer today and because my car was code 112 for a Jan 2nd production it couldn't be delayed. They did agree to cancel the order and I will re-order once we have a firm SOP for MY18. I have multiple personal reasons that I dont want to go to Germany in February, not just so as I can get the LCI version.

Not pure speculation as I am pulling these items from published articles from reputable sources but also not confirmed as I don't think anyone knows for sure. I'm surprised nobody has challenged me on any the items.

LCI F36 will have:
Chrome bits in the trim as F30 LCI. Ambient light panel surrounding radio and climate controls. LED headlights and new taillights. As well as LCI bumpers (non-M sport). As of november the pre-LCI gets: Idrive 5.0 with OTA and apple carplay capability. The LCI style climate panel is already in the pre-LCI cars. B38, B48 and B58 engines have made their way into the F36 since februari 2016. |

I've been a really difficult customer, changing my order several times and then eventually cancelling it, and they have bent over backwards to make sure I'm happy. |

Production for MY2018 will start in March, confirmed by my dealers as well as in another thread on the forums here. So...you should still be good to make that order From what I understand dealers should be receiving their price guides for MY18 mid-January.

That is the same memo my CA showed me yesterday. Hey speed-nyc if you dont mind PM what you negotiated off MSRP. My dealer is already giving me that well the 4 series gc is such a hot item we dont have much to play with. Which is complete BS they say they are very hard to get and I should just take a 430. Yeah OK whatever you say.

thanks man I am going to hit them hard next week on a 17 and see what happens with it. Really not sure if I want to wait for 18 as I will have to extend my lease to wait on delivery.
