Does anyone know if the M3 sedan will receive the same treatment for 2025, or will BMW delay it to 2026 or omit the sedan altogether from these updates?

Plenty of spy shots of M3 LCI making the rounds.

The g20 you drive looks boring AF. Have a great day

They removed the ambient lighting above the glovebox in favor of the lighting above center vents, but just seems to be lacking proper interior lighting now. BMW cost saving at work once again.

What has to be said, the white M4 on that background of white and blue looks fucking amazing, so kudos to the photographer who was able to photograph a white car on white background with contrast blue sky so well. This is like some lesson in photography.

Nothing to say about the face lift, its the same car with same face.

Is it actually iDrive 8.5? From the pictures it's missing the new HVAC controls introduced with iDrive 8.5 so it looks like iDrive 8.0. Or is the pictures used old ones?

Good job BMW, I like everything about the LCI refresh.

Didn’t read all the post, so someone might answered this already. But is it possible to get the new steering wheel for my 2024 M4xC (with driver assistant pro)?

It’s technically chalk, but I agree with you. I love that color.

Those center vents look really small and the controls strange.

The carbon trim isn’t directly above the vents either and it ends up having a strange dual trim look. (Unless it’s a configuator issue)

I hope the vent redesign doesn’t impact airflow like the X7 LCI changes did…The interior lighting is different as well.

Aside from the steering wheel I think the interior of the LCI is a bit of a step back unfortunately.

Do you think this BMW post is for the M4 CS announcement? https://x.com/bmwusa/status/17526630...YxUI-FGFls03qw

My post above explains this. It is iDrive 8.5 with the pre-existing M-skin you recall from iDrive 8.0.

In the new M version of iDrive 8.5 if you press the CLIMATE MENU icon it takes you to the new iDrive 8.5 HVAC screen.

So the external screen will now work like it always has in 8.0 (horizontally arranged widgets) but with the new 8.5 HVAC.

Not a fan of that vent design. BMW already had a weak ambient lighting game but this is pretty bad with a single strip above the vent.

The graphic on the hood is embarrassing.

Looks like it as US dealerships know how many allocations they have already for the M4 CS. Great find 👍

No need, BMW can mechanically fit x drive with a 6MT base, but they chose not to. They would certainly sell a lot of these (me included), especially for those in the snowbelt.
