I wonder if the 2008 E92 will have the same shifter as the 5, X5, and now 6...

+1. It's always been weird to me, especially the rear. I seen pics of it with it's trunk open and it looked really weird. The design makes the trunk look like an afterthought. Just my opinion...

Anyway, back to the facelift. I'ts looking quite a bit cleaner at the rear. It's less fussy if you compare it with the old one. The rear light look good. I think the front's been improved quite a bit, if you look at the old one, it didnt work for me. Overall, quite a good improvement...

Still not fan of the 6-series look...though I could live with the M6.

Interesting note was that all the engines will have the option of the 335is AT transmission, including the diesel with 580nm of torque, or 427 lb ft. Looks like this transmission is stronger than some others have speculated.

I really think the current 6 series is a beautiful car. Especially the M6. This facelift is very subtle, but all in all, I'd say it looks a bit better. I'd buy one if I could afford it.
