I am only asking because my car is scheduled for November/December delivery. Having my luck, the car will get delivered and 4 months from then the facelift will be hitting the streets.

Crazy - yeah I thought they were going to remain unchanged. But who knows? Here's another one I found also. Check this out. Looks pretty badass IMHO.

Well, I think the changes are coming too fast for the AMG GT. I can't think of any other MB that has had as many revisions as this car. Looks like the facelift model intro is scheduled for December and delivery starting in April. More power, headlights, some aero and interior tech.

All these changes are for the better and create a more desirable car but still; be nice to have a current model for at least a while...

I'm amazed by all the variants but I think it speaks to the engineering investment made to the underlying platform and AMG's committment to the platform

Coupe needs a refresh to update the infotainment in line with the 4-door.

I like the "old" front end better than the new one, so I am good for a while. It is not that you see one at every corner (especially not in solarbeam yellow). I'm good.

You're right. These cars are rare. You don't see a lot of them on the road, which I like.

The “old” original front end will be rarer in the future

I've seen an article or two that said Mercedes will show the facelift version in Paris in the next coming days.

We will see....

The days of cars staying the same for a whole cycle are gone and manufacturers are doing mid-cycle refresh or even earlier if customer feedback is negative.
It is an easier job for the sales staff as well when you come in lol.
It will be interesting if the interior gets some kind of digital dash.
It looks like they changed the mirrors and they are now closer to the body of the car to improve your view outside. I love the way the current mirrors look as they look more exotic and different than the run of the mill ones...
The new headlights look good and the wrap around LED daylight design gets my thumbs up.
I like the panamera grill but not a big fan of the chrome and the larger in your face MB star.
OP: you have to make the dive at one point and can't look back as this is probably a year away.
