Here’s the pics of the 45S and 35 facelift. Credit goes to the Instagram name at the top of the pic. The new GT 4 door style DRL are super nice IMO, it’s even more of a mini-GT 4-door now.

One more from the official AMG IG…

I seen they released the pics today.

Gona be honest i cannot see a difference 🤣🤣🤣

Yep not much visual change just some plastic bits change texture by looks of it

 

[BigJase88]

I see different DRL's
Different profile grille
Larger Fake Air Intakes cause need more fake air
Mercedes Badges instead of diamonds on grille

I think it does look better changes are very subtle and at speed or if you didn't know i don't think you would notice

Yeah, subtle changes because it’s a facelift. A decent amount of the changes too won’t really show themselves til the configurator’s get updated.

• the new lights are a big upgrade imo, even more GT 4-door vibes from the front and that was/is the ‘flagship AMG’
• 2 new colors. The spectral/starling blue is a step up from the denim blue I’d imagine it replaces, because there’s also a pretty loud hyper blue right from the new SL
• the new AMG steering wheel is an upgrade
• there’s new upholstery options.. the loud black on red was very meh imo. Should see something like two tone black/dark grey
• I wonder what the new rim option is, could be promising for a brand new design vs a recycle

Yeah however on the gen 1 CLA the facelift was noticeable. On this new model unless you really know I doubt you will notice.

I like the new trim options. Black on black is just soo boring

Black/ grey like this

I quite like the brown leather or pleather whatever it is with the Denim Blue. Shooting Brake with Blackline trim and optional 19's 😎

However the new Blue also looks good.

However I was at Mercedes today and the new C class Estate looks the mutts nutts 😵

Too much choice

I like it, it brings back some character to the E class which the last 2 designs lack
