M2 LCI Pictures?

is it just me or LCI owners are very shady? I haven't seen a proper photo shoot of real life LCIs yet. the few of them that are out there are really bad point and shoot camera pictures.

I know the first batch LCIs started rolling out in the US since only last week but comparing the M2 forum to the M3 forum, it's pretty dead in here with their pictures.

I'll be getting my LBB LCI this week (2nd batch, week 28). I'll be sure to not post any pictures also.

What I want to know is why some LCI U.S. M2's are getting hex LED lights and some are not without selecting the Executive Package.

I just read that it's happening to M3/M4s also. Someone got their M3 or M4 with Adaptive LED Headlights without paying nor ordering it. They are speculating it may be caused by shortage of parts.

I was referring to all of these threads when I said they are shady with their LCI pictures. They all were taken by early 2000s digital camera. Non of them were taken with viewers in mind. They were taken to just let us know they have the LCI.

I can not gauge how LCI features (headlights and taillights) look on the M2s.

I get what you're saying - US cars just started deliveries last week so I'm sure some nice photo shoots will appear in time. Meanwhile, I thought the video of the black car (third link) provided some decent visuals.

My email inquiry on that matter (to BMW 'Genius') has been assigned to "Joey" and I am anxiously awaiting for him to call, having been informed this morning that he "will call you soon".

True that video of the black one is done very well.

I got all the info I needed from all the LCI threads so far. The only thing that has significantly changed is the instrument cluster, other than that, it is pretty much the same car with a few cosmetic things.

Bob Olsem on Facebook just posted a picture of his BSM. Now this is how you take a picture that shows how the car looks like. Doesn't have to be a professional picture with DSLR camera. Wow this LCI rear is super sleek

Here. Now leave me alone while I try to figure out how to turn down the light level on the incredibly readable instruments.

Here you go, some pics of my (already modded) LBB LCI. It's actual the first ever produced LCI model. Sure it's the european version, but I think you might get an idea of how the LCI head/taillights look like.

Apparently if you don't spam photos of your new car and are too busy driving, you're shady?
