Is this true? I'm looking at the 330Ci and if the design is going to be changed for 2002, I will wait.

Links would be appreciated.

I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised.
The 330 is the brand new one, but by MY2002, it'll be three or so years old.

SpaceNeedle, if the stuff I've seen is true, you want the un-changed 330! The changes are Terrible!! Altezza tail lights and Jag head lights I kid you not:





And this is not speculation. Please excuse me while I clean up my own vomit (Altezza lights for God's sake!).

Yeah, that's some pretty nasty action right there.

Altezza lights are fine... AS LONG AS THEY ARE ON THE ALTEZZA. The Civics, Integras, Mustangs give it the bad image.

I believe the 3-series is different than the model pictured above. The remodeling will reflect a closer look to the 5-series.

I just wish there were pictures of the new 3-series.

The car pictured above is the new 3 series compact (aka 318 ti) straight from www.bmw.com . I sure hope any changes for the rest of the 3 series family are more like the 5 and less like that monstrosity.
