2007 e90/e92 compared to 2008 e90/e92

bronco · 12-02-2006, 11:46 AM

I read in another thread that the e90/e92's are getting a facelift in late 2007. I assume the new 2008 models will have it all?
Can someone show us pictures of that "facelift". I wasnt being able to google it and find any good ones.

It would be nice to see what will BMW change. Maybe it is not a positive change in the look, and I will have to get a 2007 model

hm... who told you such things?

rrandyy · 12-02-2006, 12:03 PM

E92's are new for 2007. Its highly unlikely they'll get a facelift in 2008.

ska///235i · 12-02-2006, 12:07 PM

well.....BMW always do changes, but who knows

ilshim · 12-02-2006, 12:27 PM

as far as i know, the iDrive gets updated. 8 programable buttons on the dash.

pseto · 12-02-2006, 12:41 PM

doesn't make sense that either will get a facelift till probably 09, the middle of the usual product lifecycle. each MY will probably get software updates and a few more options, but no facelift anytime soon. e60 is the next model to get a facelift next year.

i have not heard of such a thing, if it is true i would like to see a pic

Isn't the 7 due for one? Looks positively dated next to a 3 series.

bronco · 12-02-2006, 01:27 PM

I really hope that there are no External changes too...except for the e92 maybe. BMW could have done better job with the rear end of the e92..IMO

E90- yes: E92- I doubt it.

enwhykiid · 12-02-2006, 01:33 PM

the only difference may be tailight changes and that wont be until 2009 a completely new model meaning not an e90 will happen in like 2012

dmboone25 · 12-02-2006, 03:21 PM

Having gotten my E92 less than three months ago--I hope to God that BMW would not do a major facelift!!! The car just came out--it would make no sense.....

Got-BMW? · 12-02-2006, 03:26 PM

I wouldn't be surprised if the E90 update is to make it similar to the E92 nose.....

+1. Although I prefer the E90 look at the front overall, the split kidney is clumsy and incongruent with the rest of the range. I think that this will be part of the facelift.

2008 is probably too early in the life cycle for this. But then so was the engine upgrade for 2007, so who knows.

RiXst3r · 12-02-2006, 03:45 PM

well, the e46 had one year of 323 and 328.. then it moved to 325 and 330... so its not unheard of to make name/engine changes after the first year.

it is weird though that there will be 1 Model year of e90's that have the 330 and 325 badges.

maybe they realized that the engine has too much power potential.

The 325 and 330 products are still sold overseas, and they will continue to be sold. The full E90 is as follows: 320,325,328,330,335,M3(yet to be released)
It's only here in the US that we have just the 328 and 335 and the yet to be commercialized M3- I guess we are just power hungry here.
