The auto magazines I have seen show the '97 3ers with a double-kidney
grill that is broadened at the top to look more like the 5ers and
7ers.  I also seem to remember that ASC+T will come standard on the
6-cylinder models - but I better double check this.

These changes are for the German/European market.  I don't know if or
when they will apply elsewhere.
