errrrh....base on carmat length...how can be accurate :roll:.

Maybe this BMW's tactic... LCI = reduce legroom, then quote 1" more space in the new F30?

Nope....could it be the fact that the LCI carmat is less snug-fit (against the foot-well area) as compared to pre-FL, hence the misperception? I mean, do you tink its reasonable to deduce simply by comparing the length of 2 carpart? In any case, this is rather frivolous and the 1 inch diff does not make me more / less worse off ya.....so, I peace out

het, detach8 mean to say he found out the 1in diff when he transferred his carpet from old car to new car
Could it due to the front seat rail being mounted 1in towards the rear thus causing the diff?
Otherwise, it's a very change to make the LCi chassis shorter by 1in ....
Imagine reengineering the giant mould to press the E90 chassis

Re: E90 LCI 1" less rear legroom than old E90
Nope actually the most noticeable difference was at the rear center aircon/console area... the carpet just simply does not fit in that gap. and at the seats area the carpet go on top of the rails on the LCI when it sits nicely behind the rails on the pre-LCI.
i mean it's just an interesting observation... to share...
