do you care whether your car is the facelifted version or not?
Depends entirely on the car, that said no matter how shit a facelift is it'll have a way better resale value.
That's like asking "whud ca is gud"
>but it depends on what you need that car fo-
"WHUD CA IS GUD!!!!!"

One and done.
thread over
After 1990, very very few facelifted cars look worse than their predecessors. I honestly can't think of any, but there's always an exception.

Mazdaspeed 3 is one

Some automakers update their cars in tick-tock method... They introduce a new engine during the face-lift, and make minor updates to the engine for the all new model.
For example, the Porsche Carrera S...
- 2009 facelift (997.2) - all-new 3.8L engine (no IMS) and all-new PDK transmission
- 2012 new model (991.1) - same engine with minor ECU update
- 2016 facelift (991.2) - all-new twin-turbo 3.0L engine
Yes, the pre face lift challenger is hideous on the inside

8th gen civic coupe
>>14834710
The W124 Phase 3 looks worse than Phase 2
>>14834597
went to look at 01-05 civic sedans, thought i liked the look of 04 and 05 but wound up with an 01 the interior of the 04,05 is too modern looking and the 01 has a more traditional classic honda interior and over time i started liking the exterior alot more
Depends on the car, the E46 pre facelift sedans and tourings look dated imho, the pre facelift coupes look decent though.
I dislike the E92 facelift though
>>14838635
Pre-facelift E92 to me just looks angry and retarded. Both E46s still look good despite being outdated, though.
>>14838658
there is just something off about the headlights on the facelift (red). And maybe I just prefer the pre-FL because the E92 M3 never got a facelift.
>>14838699
On the pre-facelift the "elevation change" between the headlights and the grille is way too drastic and abrupt, I also like the praying mantis lower grille a bit better.

NC Miata got worse. Went from burn victim to serial killer burn victim.
>>14834597
My Focus? Yes. The old one was fugly. The new one is far prettier and has all sorts of fancy gadgets.
>>14839841
God the bottom one looks like a blob eyed retard
why yes i do
the facelifted version of my car burns oil
i saw smoke coming out of the oil filler cap on an 07 during an oil change
at least mine doesn't really burn any
My W202 is the facelifted version, while my friend drives the pre-facelift, and I gotta say that the facelifted one looks a bit better.
>exterior
Facelift has integrated antenna, looks smother
Facelift has a more defined lower part of the front bumper
Facelift has a more defined and sporty looking rear bumper
Facelift has more defined and sport looking sideskirts
Facelift has the glass for the reversing light and indicator much darker, which looks better with darker colored cars
>interior
Buttons blend better in with the panel, but feel "cheaper"
Door interior looks and feels better
Dashboard has smoother edges, and the glove compartment is much less visible
>>14834597
well, the only differences between my car and the pre facelift version are
>different front grille
>slightly less awful audio w/usb
so honestly idgaf
>>14839865
NC2 is qt nigga
>>14834597

>>14839841
