Just came back from Special Preview of E90 3 Series before official launch in UK this coming weekend.

Surprised to see that the E90 does not come with the Angel Lights as standard. It only comes with the Bi-Xenon light option. I would of assumed that it came with the Angel Lights as its now a BMW trademark.

First impressions of the E90 are:-
1). A lot bigger than the E46.
2). Now up to date with the current BMW design.
3). A scaled down version of the E60 interior but obviously not as spacious.
4). Opinions from other people at the preview were very positive.
5). I-Drive knob not as nice as the one on the E60.

Definitely the best car in its class.

heezy545i,

The E90 in your pictures has the Bi-Xenon lights.
All 3 E90s I saw yesterday did not have them as they did not have bi-xenons.

It seems like BMW is making the halo parking lamps something of a brand identity. I don't have a problem with BMW make them a part of the complete product lineup; at least with the "range topping" models within each series.

In the US, the 330 gets the adaptive Xenon headlights as standard equipment, so it will get the halo lamps.

Oh, I didn't read the "unless with with bi-xenon" part.
