2017 Changes - Thoughts???

What are your thoughts on the changes for 2017? Does anyone know if they are sticking with the same engines. Would love to see the twin turbo 6 in the M4 to replace the 650 engine.

looks less like a Pontiac which I like, but Bangle's ass is back which I do not like.

I thought the new body style was going to be available in 18-19? Is BMW actually releasing this next year?

Like the front but the back needs a bit more work on the design

I don't think it will be out for other 2 years.
The LCI only just come out this year
BMW brings out a new 1 every 5 to 6 year so the Fxx is only 3 years old.

Trust me, the vehicle is stupidly ugly . If it is the real thing, maybe I should think about S-class.

Any updates here? I've read that the new body style should be out for MY2017, but the surprising lack of information tells me this surely isn't the case or we'd have heard by now.

I'm primarily interested in an F83 M4, but could be convinced to go larger into more of a GT with an M6 or possibly a 650i ... but only if it's a new body style. I'll be ordering either for PCD and possibly ED.

Articles a year old and the new 6 series has been covered a lot this year and seems to be late 2018 now, which seems about right with their product cycles and LCI mid cycle dating

It sill be 2019 before we see em on the roads IMO

The M4 engine has proved to be garbage for the time being. The crank hub breaks loose under strain because of a defective design and putting that motor in a car that weighs another 500-600lbs is not going to help.
