BMW 3 Series Facelift Real Life Photos
The BMW 3 Series Facelifted version photos were released by BMW just a few days ago, but what were lacking were some undisguised real life photos of BMW's new 3 Series E90. Perka, a member of Germancarzone has spotted the E90 facelift somewhere in Munich.
As we have seen in the official photos, the new facelift brings a few different things to the table: a heavily profiled bumper, newly contoured hood and reworked headlamps with altered graphics.
At the rear, the new LED taillights have replaced the previously not-so-hot ones. The rear has a widener look due to its redesigned bumper and rear track that on upper-end models has been extended by nearly an inch.
We won't get into all the details now, but our previous article should give you a better idea of what to expect from the BMW 3 Series Sedan facelift.
In the mean time, here are the first real life photos.

IMO, the last gen 3 series is more classic than E90.

CTS, c-class, A4, and Lexus IS they all look far better than 3-series. 3-series is competing with G35 for the worst looking car in the segment.

FIX THE DAMN TAIL LIGHTS!!!! the current tail lights are fugly, and these are no different. Change that ugly shape, or put the tail lights from the coupe or something similar, anything but what they have now. they look so out of place.

Okay maybe they aren't so bad anymore. Better than before, but they still need a little work.

The M3 will most likely not change. Since it has it's own distinct look anyway.

M3 sedan will get the new tailights, the front (shared with the M3 coupe) will not change.

This here photo is a very fine example. Those wheels, with that color, and the newer, more crisp lines, really look smashing. However, I do think that they should have brightened up the brake lenses. They do look to be of the L.E.D family, but the lens cover looks quite bland.

I like this facelift as well. Too bad the U.S. will get the orange reflectors on the headlights. It really does make the car look worse.

Love it....
Kinda on the bulky side though, it's missing the clean slick lines found on the Lexus IS. But I like it.

3 series is the benchmark in its class..
in other news....
5 sereies is the benchmark
1 series is the benchmark
M cars = benchmark
X5 = benchmark
X6 = benchmark
7 series = new one definitely the benchmark
with the x3 and x1 and Z cars.. good but not benchmarks.
SO>..... how can you beat that.?? YOU CANT.!!!

how can anyone beat your logic, YOU CANT.
really, what's the point of being fanboy like you? unless you get pay check from BMW or some sort of discount, i really fail to see anyone would spend time like you to try to defend any brand. even if you own a BMW now (which i assume), you may own other brands in the future. say if you get a lexus, are u gonna change your screen name and post a bunch of worthless posts?

amazinBimmer = the benchmark of BMW fanboy.
It almost seems that every BMW enthusiast is brainwashed and don't know what they're saying.
BMW is a cult in automobile society.

I like the facelift. And I like those pictures, but beware that they show the M-sport version (bumper, wheels), which is not offered in the US.

Still prefer the C-Class and A4 design. But I'd still choose the 3 over the A4 because it's a proper BMW not a Beetle.

The A4 is a beetle?
Then I guess the Bugatti Veyron is a Beetle too..

The front end looks a lot better.
The back is still ugly.
Why can't they make the back look at least half as good as the Coupe.

take off the BMW badges and it looks like a Kia or Hyundai, seriously those who say it looks good are just BMW badge whores.
