Up front, the grille and the headlights have been given a revamp. The grille appears to have taken inspiration from the Panamericana 300SL, and the vertical slats add to the aggressive, AMG GT-ish countenance. The flowing wing and large air inlets in high-gloss black extend across the front apron, continuing into the outer edge, rounding off outwards to the sides. Image Credit: Supplied

At the rear, the smooth, oval shaped taillights have been ditched in favour of sharper, slimmer, horizontally placed lights. Rounding off the rear is a high-gloss black diffuser with two longitudinal fins and rounded 90 mm trapezoidal twin tailpipes. Image Credit: Supplied

If the optional AMG Night Package is chosen, the exterior mirror housings, window frames, waistline trim strips and trim elements in the front and rear apron comein high-gloss black.
