2010 M3 with pre lci tails??

I am currently in the market for 2008-2010 m3 and I found one at my local dealer. They claim that its a 2010 but to my knowledge 2009+ are lcis. The car clearly has pre lci tails and when I called he ran the vin and said it was a 2010. Do the 2010s still have pre lci tails or is this actually a 2008?

and 40000 miles on a 2010 is a lot

I believe MY2012 was when the LCI tails were in production, maybe MY2011. MY2010 def had pre LCI tails though

BMW VIN Decoder shows prod date of 2009-09-24. Not sure if that is 2010 or 2009 tho.

Man I got a good deal on my car. Same price as this but it had 12,000 miles on it. And I actually like the pre LCI's better, more 3D looking I guess. To each his own.

MY 2011+ cars had lci tails. Who's to say it isn't still a 2008, you'll have to run the VIN to know, but it could very well be a 2010.

My 2011 was assembled in July and has LCI. You seem to be correct on the general timing.
