-option for no runflats
-cheaper iPhone/smartphone integration. $500+ is ridiculous
-fully functioning A2DP audio streaming w/o needing to have it synced
-make auto-dimming side mirrors optional. I use limo tint all around and it makes the side mirrors almost useless
-option for remote start
-better quality sun visors
-wider wheel/tire options. (only so that it's easier to fit wider aftermarket rims)
I'm hoping for most of these for when my lease is up this coming February!!
fingers crossed

Regarding the head lights (clear corners) looking what BMW has done across all models, euro headlights always arise mid-model life.
Look at the current 3 series it had the same amber corners but now its got those great lights (the current 3 series will remain unchanged until 2013 (? I think this is when the new model is released)
I'd bet we see major updates in 2011.
People are asking too much for this car, the car is design as a cheap small sports car. Add items like a double clutch gear box and AWD just reck the brand.
