Post Official 2011 E92/E93 facelift & Information

BMW has announced substantial enhancements to the 2011 3 Series Coupe and Convertible, including outstanding style updates for 328i and 335i models and a new engine for 335i models. The 2011 3 Series Coupe and Convertible models will go on sale in Spring 2010, and pricing will be announced closer to the on-sale date.

Fundamentally unchanged are each car’s essential attributes of rear-wheel drive (xDrive is available on the Coupe), near-perfect 50-50 weight distribution, remarkably precise steering, and skillfully engineered suspension…all of which conspire to produce the uniquely satisfying driving experience that is quintessentially BMW.

For the rest of this artcile head over to BMWblog.com

BMW sure is treading lightly on the redo's aren't they? Bangle must have scared the crapola out of them.

look at those mirrors...even though they already on the newer E92/E93s I think they look simply wrong on anything but truck

I hate the new larger side mirrors whats up with every car builder having new larger mirrors, they did it with the cayenne, s-class, now this ?

Makes it slower I guess at the top end because of the drag.

I see a lot of 7-series and Z4 styling in the front end, but it looks original. BMW is definitely on the right track with this update.

I'd also like to point out that they chose a woman to drive the droptop version of the car to make a point that clearly only women and gay hairdressers buy the convertible version of the 3-series.
