Implementation sequence: i4 (brand new product line) -> 3 series (lead mainstream platform) -> 4 series (follow platform). Just my 2 cents. |

(I'm actually surprised that I'm in the minority who actually likes the curved display dash) I don't think I've ever been disappointed in any BMW LCIs in the past. Hopefully the LCI brings some refreshing design elements to this generation, as I'm planning on replacing my soon-to-arrive G82 with the last MY when the time comes. |

I plan on keeping the miles relatively low for my soon-to-arrive G82 so that I don't get hit too much with depreciation. |

Out of curiosity, has anyone actually sat down with a dealer to discuss these predictions/rumours/prospects? If a LCI (potentially for the G80 at least) is arriving as soon as next summer, it's kind of astonishing that concrete details of amendments are still under wraps or yet to be nailed down. Meanwhile, off topic, but related possibly to the anticipation of the LCI: here in the UK, the M340i has disappeared off the order list recently; whether that's a genuine discontinuation or a postponement until the LCI models go into production has yet to be confirmed.

I remember in the Spring of 2015, with the F30 340i on the horizon (replacing the 335i), I contacted multiple dealers about placing a deposit for the 2016 model, and while one or two of them knew about its arrival, others were clueless.

Hi Guys
I am basically ready to submit my order for an M3 xdrive. I had a discussion with my sales guy and he advised that my car possibly will go on production in June. He said if I want whatever the updates the g80 lci will bring is better to wait for a little while to place my order. I have chosen an individual colour and once the order is placed it will go into the que system and cannot be postponed ,if I wanted to. I just don't want to experience the same thing that happened when PRE LCI m5s WERE delivered and the same time the lci came out with updated headlights etc and all the people were annoyed . Anyone know when approximately they will announce the production for the G80 LCI? Last edited by DimM3; 11-30-2021 at 03:08 PM.. |

Of course, if you've got an Individual color or other special order in the works, then an order in March or April would likely mean a '23MY build as well, but, again, no guarantees.

Actually, one thing about the XM reveal that I found promising (amidst the cacophony about the styling) was the fact that it include hardware buttons for both HVAC and the 1-8 hot keys, seemingly combined with the iDrive 8 interface.
I was (am) concerned about the all-virtual interface (Teslafication) with the upcoming iX and i4, so I'm *really* hoping that these hard buttons make their way into the M3 LCI (and rest of the lineup) as well.

Doesn't this provide the LCI will have iDrive 8 with the two tablets on the dashboard?

I went to my dealer today and delivery for a new M3 order now is July/August 2022, and a lot of things are unclear as what some options are… there will be changes for sure as per 07/2022. Don't know what yet.

I wish these spy shots got a better look inside to verify whether there will also be redundant physical buttons for HVAC, 1-8 hotkeys, etc. -- like the XM concept featured -- though I suspect that for efficiencies and commonality the i4/4-series/3-series/M3/M4 will all share the same basic dash components. I just chatted with my SA today about moving up my order from a '23 (I was first in line) to a '22. He think they'll be able to get an allocation in May/June, but no guarantees. Update Actually here's a couple of interior spy shots as I requested. Everything is covered in black felt so it's hard to see, but it's pretty obvious the iDrive 8 mondo-screen is there. via https://www.carscoops.com/2022/01/ta...nspired-cabin/

That only confirms that the G20 will get it (and M mirrors), I still firmly believe the G80 will get iD8 when the G82/G83 does, not before.
