The M3, like every (strictly, nearly every) other BMW gets a single LCI. For M models, this comes in conjunction with their non M sibling(s). In this case that’s the 3 Series. Where the M3 is special is that it forgoes a front end derived from it’s lesser sibling and instead inherits the one from the M4. As a result, it’s face only changes when the M4’s does, which in turn occurs with the 4 Series LCI. So while it looks like two LCIs if you always associate exterior changes with an LCI, in reality BMW does not count it as a second LCI for the M3.

Gotcha that makes sense. So we can expect any major exterior changes with the 4/M4 LCI in 2024(even though they won't call it a second LCI). Thank you for the response!
