CLS Body Style Change

Ok I got my 2014 CLS in July. Now I got the car impart because I thought the styling would stay fresh for about 3-4 years. I heard that the 2015 CLS will be getting a facelift. I looked at pictures of it, I can't really see a difference and as long as its not too different I'm don't mind. Does anybody know what year it will be getting a complete overhaul? I know they do it about every 6 years and if I'm correct this CLS was introduced in 2012. But the W218 was introduced in 2010 so does that mean it will be overhauled in 2016? Any answers would be greatly appreciated I'm starting to regret the purchase.

Think about when the W212 E-class gets a full overhaul. Once we have that figured out, maybe the CLS full overhaul will come a year or two behind that.

Refresh is different than a model change. If you are really into all of the nuances you will notice it but 99% don't. It varies but a lot of times its changes to the lights, grill etc but usually nothing to the body ... definitely since the side swooping body style is in line with the new S Class. I'd say you have until '18 until you see a new body style.

Yea I heard it will be very minor changes. I saw leaked pictures of it there all over google I can't see a difference. The back l know definitely looks the same. 2018 is the year I thought it would change as well when I bought it. I just hope it doesn't look outdated because right now its an amazing looking car.
