facelifted ml63

I am thinking of changing my current ml63 to the facelifted one.
So i have several questions:

- when first cars will be delivered to its owners?
- are there any changes of the price?
- are there any extra features now available for ml63? (alcantara headliner or something like that?)

i tried to change it to some other cars... but now i am 100% sure - facelifted ml63 is what i want

ps i am not in US so dont know where i can find out such info

2011 ML63

I was just at the dealership today here in Calgary and they had a 09 ML63 that they will have on the lot in the next few days.

Some minor changes such as a larger screen for the nav which is now a hard drive system. They have also changed the steering wheel shift paddles.

I am going to look at it in the next couple of days, maybe I will take a couple of pics.

I've had my black 09 ML63 for a few weeks now - got it at end of August. Not much price change. Other than new steering wheel, new wheels, paddles for shifting and hard-drive based NAV pretty much same as 08. The cosmetic changes are take-it-or-leave-it for me. It's a big, heavy beast but putting Pirelli Scorpion Ice and Snows in the 295/35/21 size on it for skiing this winter - should do ok for that usage.

thanks for the reply!

i wonder why so little changes have done...
I thought it would be better interior (alcantara and so on), but still no such things available.
i hope it became faster

Its a facelift, there are no engine modifications that im aware about. The only modifications that comes close are the new paddle shifters instead of the annoying buttons.
