When's the digital dash & new steering wheel coming to the GT range?
Even the A-class has them both now. When's the GT likely to get these upgrades? Also any idea on a 360deg camera? The new augmented reality navigation needs some sort of front camera....

2019 imo. The C and the GT share the same cluster lay out. Have you seen the cluster of the new C? That’s a no brained. The wider center screen may not fit in the existing dash of the GT but that is just a remold.

Thanks for the reply. I am considering the new Aston Martin Vantage and 2019 would be a better year to buy anyway. Initial reports a very good and it has the optional 360deg camera although runs on the older Benz software. In any case, it should be excellent.

I don't agree with Shmee on his criticism of the buttons .. I prefer a direct control v system. I also don't agree the that the rear looks great. I am still digesting and prefer the rear look of the previous Vantage and the current GTR/GTC.
All that said, if you get a 2019 Vantage, I will be first in line asking for a ride/drive.

I’m in the analog gauges camp. I’d personally rather see analog stuff on cars in this realm. You can add some supplemental digital stuff, but at least give me an analog tach.

I would love the digital screens if they do it ala Aston Vantage i.e keep the existing look with round bezels but have the inside be digital. I think this is the way MB did it with the C class versus the S/E class.
I hope the Black Series will have a b** A** digital customizable display

AMG GT has NOT had its facelift, as the Panamericana grill was officially a MY18 change.
Coupe and roadster will almost certainly inherit whatever the sedan has - they did tell me when.... think its '19.

2019 DOG I received from Shahul at Germantown says it's essentially the same car as a 2018. Except for I believe, some new track app for your smart phone that integrates with the car.
