Wavy tail lights? Wtf. New 6 has them as well correct? So strange. Straight is more agressive IMO.
I swear bmw is trying too hard on some of these LCI's. Just give us LED's. |

No doubt at all. New isn't always better. I'd much rather have an e46 ZHP than an F30. I don't care it's slower or less luxury. It's all about that styling and the way it drives. The F30 is ugly as sin and drives like shit. The E46 is not only a styling icon but a driving dynamics masterpiece.

Yep. Already placed. And I need a 4 door ASAP for work. Oh well. I think I'll still be happy. I had and E92 with Xenons and I survived. I just can't step back to halogens. Yuck.

Also recognize that you have the luxury of only needing to drive <5k miles per year (based on your stated gas expenses), which makes it a lot easier to run an older higher mileage car as your DD. The repairs and maintenance come a lot less frequently. And yes there is a lot of irresponsible spending when it comes to cars. But there are also a lot of people who enjoy their new cars while simultaneously maxing out retirement, contributing generously to their taxable accounts, and paying down their mortgages. But I like all these people, because without them I'd have no car to buy used in 3-5 years. |

Again with the number changing -- bmw has nothing better to do -- marketing to get more buyers every 7-8 years.
i remembed when i purchased my 2006 325i (330i was more 40HP) and then the next year they changed to 328i & 335i. Now they're doing 330i and 340i...zzzzzzzzzzz couldn't they just changed the engine alone.

I specifically like the last 1/2 of your last sentence. YES please lease up all the new models so in 3 years, I can buy CPO for much less.

Yawn...
don't see any major changes other then lights. Engine hopefully is more exciting, but from what I have been reading is 40hp bump at most which is just about what you receive with the PPK. My lease is up in 6/2016 and the new S4 will be out to so perfect timing to make a call if I decide not to spend the extra $20k for M3. So basically I can turn in my 335hp 2013 335i with 6k miles in which I owe $30k for a 2016 with 340hp and new lights at a cost of $60k? Hmmm... |

I'm more interested to see what changes they made on the LCI interior. I really like the looks of the F30 exterior but the interior is what makes me cringe(sorry just my opinion). The interior is one of the the things I absolutely love about my F10.

The F30 is an amazing machine. I am coming from a E90. Owned it for 5 years.

Doesn't look much different than current model... tail lights look cartoonish. I prefer straight aggressive looks.

To be really honest, u seemed to care about led tails until I got my car and don't give it a second thought day to day enjoying my m3. The wavy lci looks terrible on another note
