I just realised that they have got rid of those beautiful mirrors and put some elephant ears on instead :thumbsdown: 
Well I guess there'll be lot of posts on E90POST asking "can I retrofit the pre-LCI mirrors to my LCI E90"...

Besides that - what a car the new E91 LCI is. A 330dA with the new iDrive system is something I'll like to own

My Ride: My ex-ride: EU '08 LCI 520dA. Space Grey, Sport Seats in Black Leather/Fabric Anthracite, Sport Steering Wheel, A/C with Extended Features, Hi-Fi Speakers, Cup Holders, Cruise with Braking function, Folding Rear Seats, Xenons, Park Distance Control.
Thanks for sharing Rudy,
It didn't get the new 740i engine (335i) with 326 hp as here in EU?
But the diesel (335d) is great news for US, but you didn't get the brand
new one turbo 3.0 liter diesel with 245 hp and 520 Nm as we in the EU.
Still the rear wheels are too much in the rear fenders, the E90 must still
have minimum 18" 255's rear.
The E60 looks better!

I the German press (AMS) they stated that they have widen the rear track, so the wheels should stick out further at the rear. Difficult to say from pictures, so seeing it in real life will be the real test...
It's going to be interesting to see how the new 330d (new one turbo 3.0 liter diesel with 245 hp and 520 Nm) does in the company car leasing. It has improved fuel efficiencies and emissions values, however the favourite will still be the 320d.
The new rear end on the E90 is also growing on me, but its still not getting a
from me yet!

It's due to the new EU regulations. Look at the new Audi A4/A5, it has elephant ears as well..
