The new headunit doesn't make it that much easier to fit something aftermarket, that fascia has always been available. Unless of course it's not as wide as the previous fascias and hence doesn't need the infill bits for a unit to sit flush...

Just by looking at it I can tell you that it is exactly the same fascia as you buy from Toyota, meaning you will need the spacers which cost close to $40 for both sides, but those can be purchased from Toyota too, so it just means you don't need to buy the fascia to change head units, though for those who decide to keep stock head unit, that thing is hideous!

Well it means you don't need to buy the fascia kit. In my opinion, not having to get something like that makes the process that little bit easier.

Overall they've done some tasteful and sane changes to the car, regarding simplifying the HUD and head unit area.

Headlight and taillight changes, I like very much.

Aurion badges are in the worst location they could think of.

Grille still fails.

Sure didn't. Should have come a bit more prepared.

I did have a good hard look at it however. It nearly seems like the body around the light fixture is a slightly different shape, but it may have been an illusion given the tail lights stick out a bit.

In my opinion, it looked pretty much identical, even the part inside when you open the boot lid.

I'm not sure if i really like the interior update nor the front end treatment - i prefer the pre-facelift to be honest. But i absolutely love those clear taillights, and for some weird reason i like the AURION badging on the front fender. looks neat :-P

Someone mentioned before, about the new YF sonata. Here are just a few more hi-res pics. Toyota might have a bit of problem on their hands when the sonata comes out. Lookin forward to the next gen aurion.

$hit, Hyundai have made a good looking car there.

Any word on what Donks they will be using on those things????

I believe the Kia will be offered with either a 3.5V6, 2.7L V6, 2.4L Theta II and a 2.0L. Six Speed Autos will also be used apparently. The same goes with the sonata. I've read that most of these engines will be direct injected. There are possibilities of diesel engined variants as well based on the Hyundai R diesel engines.

the grill looks like a camry

I think so too...they haven't changed the dimensions of the lights have they?

I have just got a new ATX for my work car but I have been on hols for 2 weeks so I haven't had a good look at it yet. will get the tape measure out :P

i saw one of these sportivos in white yesterday, very nice!

So did I... complete with QPS gear. Their first line up looked pretty hot, but using the facelift Aurion worked out even better.
