Is this 2011 or 2012 C-class facelift?

So is this it? The new C63 facelift will have that headlight and LED running lamp? Anyone can confirm?

And since there's a new AMG logo:



Will the new C63 in 2012 have dual square exhaust on both sides like the new S63?

Ouch, i'm not feeling the headlight at all! This pic looks to be a regular C.

Looks like a SL headlight. I'm sure the LED running lamp on C63 in 2012 will look more like the ones on E63 and the new S63.

This is the non 63 C-class. I doubt they are going to change the headlight as it looks very good as it is, except maybe add some LED features into it at best. Otherwise the bumper is a possibility as well as new alloy rim designs.

I hope that the C AMG will have the square exhausts! It will looks nice, I think.

Is this the real deal or just a rumored version someone has photoshopped together?

talked to my sales rep today. He told me that there aren't gonna be any major changes on the exterior of the car. The inside of the car however will completely get a facelift. He said that the present C-class has gotten a lot of critic regarding the inside. Words like "Cheap" have been describing it. Therefore they are now redoing the interior based on the current e-class.
Guess i'll wait with my order

I am guessing the 2012 C-Class interior will be almost identical to the E-Class coupe. No way it will be as nice as the E-Class sedan though..

BTW, the W204 will not be getting the face lift until 2012 model arrives.

GT2 C63 and yo sister
umm, the C class just got updated except for the C63, Im skeptical of any facelift until a new AMG motor is out in the Cclass as they wouldnt just do a facelift and crash testing for 1 year and then change motors and have to redo all that work, my prediction is oif a facelift ahpens soon that means the C63 sticks with the 6.2L NA motor, if they wait that means the C63 gets the 5.5 TT, also does MBZ do midyear updating?

I even heard there's been some speculation that the C would get the 5.5 engine but without the TT. That would suck... :/
Not putting too much confidence to that solution though
Besides i love the NA engine.

Being a Viper guy, the same saying goes for the current C63: there is no replacement for displacement.....
