Product Overview
BMW 3 Series Coupe E92 LCI is a compact executive coupe in production from 2010 to 2013. It was available with a range of inline-4 and inline-6 engines that displaced 2.0 to 3.0 liters.
Compared to the pre-facelift E92, the LCI ditched the bi-turbo N54 engine and introduced the N55 for the 335i. The new N43, N47, and N57 engines also replaced earlier units. Notably, the N47 and N57 were the generation of I4 and I6 diesels with numerous recorded premature wear issues, making the E92 LCI arguably the least reliable 3 Series in history.
BMW has made a good effort in aerodynamics, with a decent 0.27 coefficient of drag to show for it.
