When is the LCI F30 coming out
Hi everyone..
Like the subject says, any idea when is the LCI F30 going to launch in the US? I am planning to upgrade to an F30 but I want to get the LCI version. Thanks!

Model year 2016 because MY2015 will start in less than 18 months... that is too soon for an LCI, considering the F30 has only been available for sale for 12 months. 12 months + 18 months is too early for any BMW LCI. Most BMW LCIs are in the 5th model year of the 7 year cycle.

Thanks for the advice guys.. My 2009 E90 has 70K miles and I am thinking to lease the F30 for 3 years or so and then buy the LCI F30 model when its out.. do you think that's a good idea or should I stick to my E90 till the LCI comes out? I'm unable to decide and need some feedback/help. I was thinking that if I keep my E90 for another 3 years I'm anyways going to loose about $4-5K. The dealer in San Diego appraised my car for trade-in at around $15K as well.

I don't think you'll see an LCI before 2015 at the earliest. They haven't even announced any changes yet for MY14.

BMW cycles are always 7 years per generation, and the LCI always come mid-cycle. So as others have stated, 2016 will be the year... FYI the F10 hasnt even had a face-lift yet.
