Apart from vertical slats on grill...what else was visually facelifted on the QP.........?

They ruined the QP when they facelifted it in 2008 IMHO.

 

[Parisien]

..surely being associated as a "family" look with the newer GT wasn't a bad thing?!

Posted this one a few weeks ago...Great spec but the wheels...Nooooooooooooo......Just terrible........For me they completely spoil the car...Nice prive though and from a great specialist..

Both cars alloys are bad......people must keep their standard things and put on when selling, as we all prefer standard.....

Longer nose cone (2 inches or something) led rear lights....

I agree that the face lift was not the best...Its the grill....Thats untill they bought out the GTS as the grill went in instead of out with the grills...Thats the bit I didn't like on the normal car.

Dem, the wheels on the black car are standard GTS wheels............You can have them in black, silver or anthracite.....Not a fan of the black either.

 

[dem maser]

They are yes just looked again, i dont like them in black......anthracite will prob be best

 

[jamesc69]

I just don't think black wheels suits the QP....Anthracite yes...

 

[Parisien]

Agree Andy.................look NAFF....

[Andyk]

It's too elegant to carry off black....

 

[Parisien]

...not so much that....Andy....more.....they make it look "sunken"...low slung in a not nice way..................ruins its elegance....

[Andyk]
