Think you may be right - thanks for posting them. Will have to see "in the flesh" to decide.

Hard to see the rear, but it looks like the only thing changed are the headlights....maybe a small spoiler on the rear of the roof.

I think the spoiler is just the roof rack, with those 2 brackets moved to the back. You can tell it's a roof rack, since you can see the rails. But I think you're right, the only thing that has changed is the headlights, and also maybe the tailights.

If they changed the tailights to what you can see in the picture..they aren't changing to anything new. I've had these for over a year.

Yeah I like the looks of the headlights but the rest looks the same? [:I]

You can see a rather strange (not very attractive) spoiler located at the top edge of the rear hatch behind the roof rack on the 33 photo. The headlights remind me of the Concorde nose droop when it is landing.

The front bumper is integrated into the fenders in a somewhat interesting way on the silver car. It appears that the silver car and the blue car may not share exactly the same top grille or bumper design (photo 11 vs photo 22) although the difference in angle makes that difficult to determine exactly. The lower front fascia is redesigned, including the use of round fog lights and a more square design under the bumper than the current PT's. Obviously this is a European model with the side marker lights behind the front wheels. The door spears appear to be more sedate.

Not sure I see enough changes to make me drool or to upset me.

Crewzin, you are correct on the tail lights. I have had those for some time also and love them. Did you notice that the backup lights do not appear to be located on the rear bumper. The clear upper portion of the tail lights would give them the opportunity to integrate the backup lights into the turn signal portion if they desired (not saying that they will).

Well, the headlights are definitely a bit different, more of a "current" look it seems. There most definitely is a small lip spoiler at the top of the hatch. You can plainly see it between the pushed back roof rack crossmembers and the rear window.

Since the pix are all of European cars (note the license plates and side marker lamps on the front fenders) I wonder if the little stubby antenna at the rear of the roof is a Euro only thing too. None of the three pix shows a front fender mounted antenna. Of course, that stubby antenna on the roof sits right where my Sirius Satellite receiver currently resides. Hmmmmmmm.........

[8D] I think the sunroof is wider as well [?]
