Well then look at a Benz next if you feel their facelift models are as dramatic, they are still a brilliant machine though not to my personal taste. But I still reckon you are wrong with the opinion that overall their cars are any less dramatic a change when midlife facelift comes around.
2008 C-Class
2012 C-Class
P.S.
It's amazing those rose tinned glasses you are wearing.
I could include the pre and post facelift 3 series for good measure and show how they too are as dramatic but I think you have enough to get on with here.
