Stands for Life Cycle Impulse and seems to be the new posh word for facelift, or has been chosen as it weren't a huge facelift altogether.

08 5 series wouldn't be the correct term, either, as this is a US terminology only.

Could live with facelifted, though.

I would think that LCI applies to MJ more than any other celeb, changes up his whole face on impulse all the time.
