Here it is, the facelift.

Likely will swap the rear lights they are all pure LEDs, and those awesome turning sequential signals are dope, not to mention the interior exquisite quilted leather.
 
I agree, the red quilted leather looks exquisite.

It goes without saying that style is a personal thing, but the red quilted leather interior could be the most gorgeous interior I've ever seen. I'd take a Stinger with red quilted leather over any other car on the road today.

This video shows the red interior in a better light:

 
Grrr! Face mask?! The very first Korean face masked wonder I saw was clear back in MARCH, yacking away behind a face mask talking about a CAR ferpetesakes! There is absolutely NO reason to wear a face mask while making a video. The freaking camera is at a safe distance times two.

And it shows off the silly little pipes inside those enormous tips. :P

They are some almighty big exhaust tips. :laugh:
 
That last video sold me on the taillight redesign, while I still love the 18-21 design I think the new taillights definitely have the edge when it comes to looking more premium/upscale they are on the level I'd expect Porsche to have on the new Taycan.
 
This is the best video i have seen so far for showing the car interior. Very big improvment from the pre-facelift in term of interior and technology. Exterior is nice also but smaller changes that's all.

 
The 10.25" infotainment is a nice upgrade. Probably the most noteworthy IMO.

I could go either way on the tail lights. I like the sequential turn signal, but I still prefer the shape of the lights on the 18-20 model.

The seats are nice - but again, I wouldn't upgrade for them specifically. Although, I did notice something in the video...

These buttons on the side of the passenger seat. Looks like they allow the driver to adjust the back angle and font/rear movement of the seat. Is this a Asia specific feature? I remember a Jalopnik article about the "Pervert Lever" in the original Honda Prelude - is it making a comeback?

Also, those coffee can exhaust tips are atrocious. Good news for modders who want to ditch the stock pipes for aftermarket. No trimming for new tips. :rofl:

It does look like the actual exhaust pipes extend further into the decorative tips in the bumper and have ditched the flanges from the current model. This is most likely to help counteract any loud tones from their upgraded EVC exhaust when it's open.

Anyone know the difference in these headlights?

I look forward to when these videos come with actual sound of the cars (specifically the new exhaust) and not b-roll music.

For the seats button I believe those already there for those having Nappa seats no? GT2 in USA and Limited in Canada.

For the exhaust I believe by spraying the real pipe and visible exhaust component matte back it will help to make them less noticiable but I agree this is not ideal, still better compared to some audi that the exhaust gas are not even flowing in the fake tips.
 
Glad the exterior is substantially the same. The blue car I’d seen pictured before looked slightly less curvy (maybe just the angle?). Like the new tail lights but not enough to overcome the large tips nestling tiny exhaust pipes. Still with the fake hood vents, huh? Inside, I’m glad to see a red option but not a fan of the quilted seats. Makes me think I’m driving grandma’s car. Also looks like the headliner is Alcantera; some like, I do not. I like the extra lighting on the dash and the larger screen (though I think my trapezoid looks more organic). Definitely looks like the control software is improved.

However ... WHAT IS THIS WIZARDRY WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CONTROLS BEING DRIVER AND REAR PASSENGER ACCESSIBLE? That is PURE GENIUS!!!
 
The g70 has those seat adjustability switches, so they just carried that over.

In the other thread someone speculated that the 2.5t gets the white cars headlights and the 3.3t gets the older design headlights.

You know you can get that now right? It’s been done by other members.
 
My GT Ltd does not have those buttons. They are generally there for rear seat occupants to move the seat forward for more space.
Grandpa: Hey! Stop messing with my seat.
Grandchild: But, Grandpa! I need more room!
