Think the coupe's done next year (MY2017) and the grand coupe probably the year after (MY2018). Although personally I think if the 3's anything to go by its probably one of the weakest LCIs BMW have done.

Yes probably a couple of years yet as it's only been out a year.

If you get one now with LED headlights & fit ACS springs you'll basically have an LCI bar the LED rear light clusters.

Is the LCI going to address the xDrive stilts?

Afaik the ride height will stay the same, so the ACS springs will be better than the LCI suspension as it will be lower on top of being stiffer.

Got it, cheers.

Looks I will keep mine sort the springs, tyre, wheel refurb etc.

The 4GC is a lovely thing but probably wont be a big enough change from what I already have and then I still have to sort the springs out.

After much deliberation I ordered 435i GC the other week. Wasn't too concerned about LCI but was about the new engine. I took the view that it was either now or wait until the change I think if you get to the end of this year there maybe some kicking oneself shortly after taking delivery
