It’s been a relatively quiet week for testing at the Nurburgring, but the Mercedes-AMG C63 has been caught on camera testing a facelift.

Sporting camouflage up front and in the rear, the Mercedes-AMG C63 Coupe appears to be getting the Panamericana grille that has been finding its way to other AMG models. The front bumper is also getting an updated design, and the headlights are getting an upgrade to LED units. Over to the rear of the prototype, there appears to be slight changes to the bumper, and you can expect to see changes to the tail lights although they’re missing on this test car.

Inside the cabin, the German automaker will likely update the infotainment and navigation system, along with a new touchpad. The instrument cluster should also see an update and a full digital version will most likely be added as an option. Don’t expect too many changes, or any at all, to the 4.0-liter V8 engine and 7G-Tronic automatic transmission.
