Basically its a when and what question. I think I remember reading a post that said that the facelift was about to come in 2007 but I am not entirely sure. If anyone has details on the changes (the new auto box etc) too I would appreciate the info.

no real facelift for the e63 thru its life cycle, they will making a slight change to the front spoiler, but only those that intimately know the beast will notice it

the 28th of january should be the official announcement, but lets wait for it... BMW has a habit of being late with announcements...

Were looking at
Soft-close
Minor exterior mods
New colours


What were not getting
New autobox (thats almost 99%sure)

Any reason for not doing the improved (read e92 335i here) STEP for the bigger engines? Or is that the reason, the bigger engines/torque?

Next year, moderate updates, but at least a new engine; 635i!

my dealer said something on the lines of : the 6-er is the smallest selling model of the bmw range, hence bmw wont invest much money to improve it... in addition the sales of the 6 have been remarkably consistent, and have not fallen out like the e60

Really? Wow would have liked to see a compareable chart with the E60 sales and E63 model. Probably E60 fell but i doubt it had the same peak value as the E63. Again, only a chart would do it justice.
