From what I can tell on google, seems to be different front and rear bumpers, and different grille. Different exhaust tips as well. Anything else?

- most important, it says "AMG" from the rear for 43 and 63
- The front break is red in 63

The rear fender plastic trim is more pronounced on the AMG models.

Buying one?
The 300 is not comparable to a 63 in any way.
300 and 43 or 43 and 63 are more comparable.

Looking to buy a glc63s early 2021. Just curious on the cosmetic differences since it's actually a bit hard for me to tell. Even the new facelift doesn't look much different to me except the taillights.

Too bad used car prices are still at an all time high.

Did you previous post have a picture? looks blank to me.

No. I didn't post a pic. I have a 300 SUV. The 2020 facelift added the AMG GT-R grill to the 43. It also changed the headlamps and taillamps. It also added the new steering wheel, digital gauge, and MBUX.
The cosmetic changes are visually nonexistent.

2021 GLC 300
In my opinion. The GLC 300 is a totally different animal than the 6 cyl AMG 43 and 63. The 43 and 63 are performance SUV's. Quick, fast with an uncomfortable rough ride. The GLC 300 is a soft riding comfortable SUV with a peppy little 4 popper.
