LCI is more of a bmw term stands for Life Cycle Impulse and mostly means the unique look in the taillights, the 2012+ c class has a LCI tailights for example and 2008-2011 c class is pre-LCI.


LCI



Pre-LCI


Hope that helps

yeah that really helps, thanks for everything, i was wondering is it worth it to have your car undercoated if you live in a place where its snows, I've asked and got different answers?

With 20+ years, 400,000 miles, 2 MB, 2 BMW in NH and VT snow and salt country I found no possible need for undercoating.

Just my opinion, spend your money on undercarriage washes in snow/salt season.
