6 series facelift

enwhykiid · 04-16-2007, 06:42 PM

i dont see the difference but here u go:

KL2DC · 04-16-2007, 06:52 PM

Looks just about as mild a facelift as the 2008 E60. I suspect the side marker will move to the fender ala E60, E70 and E92/93 as well. Those wheels look like 189s...

18LLC · 04-16-2007, 07:23 PM

these and 189s are 5 spokes, but sure is not 189s...

325 Baller · 04-16-2007, 07:29 PM

the front bumper has been mildly changed.

SpecC · 04-16-2007, 07:29 PM

my god that is even uglier than before lol

Zirenz2006 · 04-16-2007, 07:36 PM

Maybe they are changing the design of the interior door panels which they are doing for the 5 series.

T Bone · 04-16-2007, 07:40 PM

Looks like there will be an infrared camera.....

Almost as subtle as the 2008 E60 changes.

Greeney · 04-16-2007, 09:55 PM

Looks identical, im sure the change is on the inside

shipill · 04-16-2007, 10:48 PM

ugly

FinInk · 04-16-2007, 11:29 PM

meh

enwhykiid · 04-18-2007, 03:07 PM

i read that they changed the back and front bumper and theyre probably also putting in the new electronic shifter

Year's_End · 04-18-2007, 03:45 PM

Actually, they're quite easy to spot if you know someone who owns one. My dad has a 645Ci, and I noticed a few changes:

-Front lip pillars (the pillars that form a 'V' with the hood) are now curved instead of straight.

-Headlights no longer have amber lenses. You can see the strip running along the front wheel arch. This seems to be the trend that all models are undergoing now. If this is true, then I expect the e90 to follow through with this sometime soon as well.

-Rims are new.

-Something about the rear bumber...

JackMac · 04-30-2007, 09:09 AM

Facelift? Needs a butt lift!

An aftermarket trunk would solve much of the look. Slope it down, somewhat like a 911.

Neil · 04-30-2007, 01:13 PM

The lights and bumper make it look sad. I guess I would be too with a face like that.

06330i · 04-30-2007, 02:17 PM

ughh. idk

E90330iS · 04-30-2007, 05:27 PM

There is only minor change in bumper and interior I guess. I like how the facelifts don't change much these days to keep the customers loyal!

Kiemyster · 05-06-2007, 01:21 PM

meh....

never really liked the 6er.

ALPINE6SPD · 05-07-2007, 01:01 PM

new front and rear bumpers but most people will not be able to tell the difference.

cobradac · 05-07-2007, 04:48 PM

Tell me how this "FACELIFT" front lip pillars differ from mine?

Euro Spec (and I imagine the ROW) never did have amber lenses - that was only for US Spec models - hence the reason many US 6er owners spent upwards of ~2k to get Euro headlights. So to look at these pics and state this is a change for the US SPEC is just a bit speculative. Now if the reflector shown in the first pic (only this pic, but not apparent in 2nd or 3rd pic) were to truly be present then I would say, yes, maybe all clear headlights.

I never associate rims with "facelift" - does BMW?

Rear wise I see Euro license plate holder rather than US SPec (thinner and wider) - so that does not count, and no backup lights in the location mine are (but is that real or test mule related only). Other than that???
