Im looking at an M6 Gran Coupe on a 64 reg...Im unsure if the car is an LCI or not

Does anyone know definitively which month/year the M6GC was facelifted?

Im usually quite good at spotting things like this but unsure when it comes to the M6GC.

Thanks for your help

Sept 2014 for European (6E91) and Feb 2015 for UK (6E92) - but that's manufactured date, not registered date, so you'd need to check that for the specific car - but it might just have slipped in before the 15 plates came out in March.

i think front indicators are a giveaway they went from below to above headlights. Mine was first registered end of Oct 2014 and they are below.

Epic cars hope you push the buttonsmile

The headlights are the main visible change for the LCI. The iDrive controller was actually changed significantly earlier, about March 2014 production.

Thanks re headlights info....seems quite definitive whereas the idrive controller thing seems a little uncertain as some pre lcis seem to have the larger idrive controller

LCI -

LED headlight style changed and LED standard on all models. Previously standard was Bi xenon.
Indicators moved from wings to mirror housing
Central infotainment screen changed to an all glass front with piano black glass surround finish. (Previous had a grey plastic housing surround)

there were other standard spec changes aswell such as digital dash became standard (previously analogue dials standard) etc.
