    Aside from a few minor changes to the grill and lights it looks the same.

    Edit: it actually TELLS you its dark outside and recommends using the headlights? WTF?

    "All new", I love that saying. These guys could sell air conditioners to the eskimoes. It's a Volvo from the wipers back.

    Long as they improve the weird things about the current 579, like the leaning in moderate turns, always feels unbalanced instead of flat footed through a curve.....and the front end already has shaking and rattling after only 49,000 miles....so i hope the panels and fittings stop buzzing.....
