Question Re: Looking for Info on S-Class Facelift 2003

I've been trying to find pictures or something worth posting but without results. There are some independent reviews coming in but not from official sources. The latest write-up that came across my desk last week:

"S-Class gets refreshed inside and out for 2003. Look for better interior appointments/quality and minor revisions to the exterior lighting/bumper areas." ...AutoSpies.

Incidentally, these same people 'ripped' the new BMW 7 Series severly while writing glowing remarks about the upcoming MY03 E-Class.

...RAB

If this is the case, I wouldn't expect pictures to show much in terms of cosmetic changes. Considering the S-Class only just came out in 2000 it would not make sense to change the features extensively.

Are the headlights clear now, or still frosted?

Thanks,

frosted, but that doesn't mean that they won't be clear.. I think they will be clear to some degree.
