Saw facelifted 2009 E90/91 marketing images (description & image inside)

I'm sorry I don't have any pics to post. Much of this is just confirmation of current news. The E90/91 gets a new front, the hood has a long raised central bump originating from the roundel, reminds of the Jaguar XF but softer, looked really nice.

The front and rear turn and brake signals had the giveaway look of small clustered LED reflectors, the rear light is just as the renderings here on E90post depict (all red, notched, but still sloping) except the small white reverse light looks more like a tapered rectangle.

The side sills look like they get a little more shaping and a stronger creaseline. In general it looked a bit more aggressive, with subtle added surface shaping.

The E91 image looked to be Space Gray.



Mirrors had no integrated signals.

The E91 image showed a wheel I didn't recognize, it had 10 equally spaced straight spokes, alternating spokes had slightly different thicknesses. They looked like 18s, clean, almost Audi like.

My source didn't have any new news on the updated CiC/iDrive system for the E90/91.

And do you care to tell us how you saw this marketing material?

This looks like the E91 image you mentioned in your post with the "10 equally spaced straight spokes, alternating spokes had slightly different thicknesses. They looked like 18s, clean, almost Audi like."

Seems like it's not a photoshop - maybe that's why he only posted a tiny version of that pi!? Larger?! maybe for an E92?
